You are doing a great job. I built a few buildings like that for animals and reptiles, and it costs quite a bit to do a really good job. I did build one that was for lizards and tortoises and instead of using wood for the walls I used what I think was called double sided polycarbonate. It came in sheets and the sun's rays heated the interior like a greenhouse. If it was too hot in the summer I had a screen shade that I pulled over the roof, plus an exhaust fan. I could even grow plants and flowers inside and the chameleons loved them.

thanks for your replys, there has been some more progress, will upload photos tomorrow
(My Next door neighbours who dont like me)- Reported me to the Building inspectors
so a Building inspector came round today. which i was un-aware of but i was expecting a visit due to how sad the neighbours are and wanted to see what all the complaints were about.
(so i took him through the house and explained the plan to him) - all fine
we then went out side so he could have a look and get some measurements, needless to say the building inspector was very understanding and understood the reasons as to why im building a shed. he said everthink is within the limits of hight and ground space used and dose'nt seam tobe more than 50% used (50% is the limit of ground space that can be built on) and said im fine to continue with the build, he said i should get the planning permission as he see's no problem with the (Building) and also said once the shed is complete to get the building regulation inspectors in just to give it a go over and make sure everythink is A-OK then i should get the certificate
(if they tell me to take it down then i have already said that the older shead and the cat run will be taken down instead but it shouldnt come to that)
Finger crossed

It is going to be insulated and have 240v along with a backup power supply (generator)
it is going to have an incubator room to one end. which will be temperature and humidity controlled.
i makeing my first purchase of the battens to make the frame for the reptile room next month which will cost £223.92
In the mean time im getting some breeze blocks and a door and door frame for the reptile room
then the month after i will be buying the shiplap cladding which will cost £239 for 220mtrs
If you like the idea please let me know, i will be taking photos along the way if i get any intrest

I would love to see your project all the way through! My boyfriend and I had not considered building an outbuilding for our babies, but that may be just what we need! Thanks for the idea!
