I know I posted this in my other thread, but wanted to share some better pictures.
Cage is made of 3/4" plywood, sealed with Drylok Extreme and waterproof caulking. Put one thin coat all around, brushed a second thicker coat all around, then rolled a few more very thick layers along the area the substrate sits in. The bottom is coated so thick you can barely see any imperfections in the wood. Has an adjustable vent at both ends of the cage. Sliding locks on top to hold the door in place. 1/2" plexiglass for windows.
Heated by two 100W Halogen bulbs, and a 150W Ceramic Heat emitter. The CHE is connected to a Zoo Med Hygrotherm. Also have a Walgreens humidifier hooked up to it, that's router with pvc into the cage. I have a reptisun 10.0 running along the basking spot, and a regular fluorescent along the other half. I'll be switching to Arcadia 12% bulbs after this new reptisun runs out.
I use a large little box for both his hide and his water dish. The basking spot is a large piece of driftwood that reaches about 120*F. The cement blocks make a nice spot to put his food when I don't have time to feed him outside his cage. They were originally his hide but he quickly outgrew that idea.
I've attached an old picture of him since he's hibernating currently. Also attached a picture of my bearded, who wasn't very happy about the lights coming on during brumation.
