Thanks for sharing :) |

Just a small thing, i am being pedantic. But you have put the back board in the wrong way round. I would change it for 2 reasons. 1, the vents can be pushed out from the inside. 2, the metal clips will rust and the mdf will blister as it's not laminated.
Lovely snake though |

Good points Welly, Thanks for the comments and advice.
Since taking the photos i have gone mad with my silicone gun (with reptile safe sealant) and sealed up all the edges, the wood is laminated and the vents are pushed into the holes the other way so they cant be pushed out and siliconed in for extra security. Also, low level vents are blocked up to prevent heat loss/drafts at basking height. Metal caps are also covered in silicone seal now to prevent moisture.
To be honest, since getting my BRB i have had t learn fast about humidity and the effects of it on vivariums and decor. Its a steep learning curve! But my temp and humidity are right and my BRB is healthy and eating and shedding well. |

The advice i would give, if you'd like it is to weekly check everything. The amount of mould build up in such a short period of time is quite scary if you don't keep on top of it. I poly lined my viv to stop the moisture build up attacking the wood. I have 3 vents open in mine. I had 2, but yesterday opened up another. 1 open in the hot end and 2 now in the cooler end. I have found the moisture retains the heat and trying to get the cooler end to drop is/was a challenge |

Sharp eye, Welly -- good job!
Stevie, more great picts! Just make sure you keep an eye on her anytime you run the fogger with her in the cage, just in case she decides to check it out. |
