Some pics of the home of Cheerio the Magnificent.
Sorry for the glare, our kitchen area has a lot of windows and it was a nice day.
Overall it measures 54"long X 57"high X 18" wide. Actual "snake space" is about 52" long X 19" high X 16.5" wide.
This thing was listed on Craigs for free.
The man made it for his saltwater fish. All of the plywood is 3/4" thick.
He was not a carpenter, but managed to make a real sturdy tank.
I removed the filter piping and made some sliding covers with lexan.
There is a sliding door in the side for access to the water bowl, I also feed her on that side on a paper towel.
On the warm side the bottom has a lexan plate with 2 small stick-on UTHs controlled by an altered thermostat from a large oil-fired heater.
Temp and humidity monitored by a digital combo with probes (Zilla).
Reptibark substrate. The leaves are from the craft store.
The shelf is an experiment. I want to see if it works for her before I put in something more permanent, I think it does.
Red LEDs in the lid light it in the evening so we can see her roam.
The cool side, and water bowl in the back corner.
The warm side.
The top opens on both sides to a sliding, ventilated cover. The LEDs are wired on the underside of the lid.
