hey guys. im going to start working on a new huge tegu encloure thats about 10X10 in my room. for my red tegu and my b/w once it gets older. and me and my dad thought of a greatt idea! to understand our design you would have to watch the video of rick in the link below.

our design is that we use the same kind of material that rick has used on his enclosure. the metal paneling that tegus cannot climb. then use that material as a 10X10 border around the enclosure. and seal a plastic panel on the bottom to lay the mulch on and to keep ther mulch moist. we would be building this enclosure into my closet wich is about 6X3 on the inside. where the tegus will be able to bask. but this is all very complex what im saying so i will cut to the chase. i want to build an open tegu pen as seen in the video but in my room. that way the tegus have tons of free roam, space. would this work? an open tegu pen? built into my room? it seems like a great idea to me. it would be cheap. and easy to make. my only concern is humidity but im sure there are ways to solve that. and the reason i wouldnt be able to make the pen outside is because i live in a really residential area in ct and it gets real cold. but just tell me what you think. thank you for reading this and please let me know your thoughts! thanks in advance!
Jerry
