This is his current set up...





Just finished the table he is on...4 feet off the ground to get away from drafts. The big lamp (silver in the left corner) has a 150W ceramic heater. The little lamp in the middle is a 40W appliance bulb just to light the enclosure(its on a day/night timer and the ceramic heater is 24/7). There is alfalfa(rabbit) pellets on the ground and he hides in his hay on the far side (right) that you can not see very well in the enclosure. When it gets to cold I have a oil heater that i will hook up to raise the garage temp a bit. Made this today...Tell me what you guys think. I have a older UVB bulb i found that works in the attic from a year or two ago. I'm going to hang it over the middle of the cage.
