I know zilch about caimans but do you plan on sealing the wood floor?

Oh yes the whole inside of the inclosure is painted 6 coats of polycrylic oil based,ever corner is sealed with silicone,not to mention the wood was glued & screwed. I thought of maybe putting tile on the floor with a under heating mat in a small section.I might just apply this in his future life enclosure.

A litter dam around the water pool, just a heads up they do like to dig a bit.

Ya I found that out from another owner. I never saw him dig untill it got chilly. In the summer he like the hamock more than the ground, now he is fine with digging up everything. These guys just facinate me.
