About $1000 usd total, maybe $200 of that in the pond. So 800? That was pretty cov though. Probably more now

Thanks for watching and the kind words. Good luck on your build and with your new sand lizards. Super cool lizards! We don't see them very often in the states. Kenen is the man! 👍🏻

I appreciate that. Thanks 👊

No. The material I used, known as pressure treated, is designed to be used in wet conditions. Sealants may be necessary as a matter of upkeep as time goes on. Thanks for your comment 👍

Thank you! 👍

Unfortunately I also only have favorable weather in the summer. A little in late spring and early fall too. My guys have to be moved in and out seasonally. I still feel like it's worth it. Thanks for your comment!

Not a stupid question. Thanks for asking it. The plywood skirt around the bottom does several things. It me from hitting the wire mesh with a lawn mower or weed wacker, it creates a visual barrier when the animals are on the ground preventing them from thinking they can just walk out onto the grass and it gives them a greater sense of security when on the ground or in the pond.

I know... you're right. Things have been a little busy for me lately. You should see something early next year. Thanks for your comment

Awesome! You and your monitors will love it. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions or just want to bounce ideas with along the way. Thanks for your comment 👍

I think Aussi's would do great in a setup like mine. I have seen that lots of people living in Australia do it. Should be great as long as you're local climate allows. Thanks for the comment 👍

@@madmakerreptile8294 where I am is a bit cold because I'm in the mountains but I'm moving to somewhere where they thrive so it should be fine there

Sounds good! Good luck. If you get into it and have any questions, feel free to ask. Happy to help.

It's not. I considered driving steel steaks into the ground and bolting them to the enclosure but ultimately didn't. Wouldn't be a bad idea though. Thanks

I'm happy you enjoyed it. Thanks ❤

Okay, since he's not tame, you will have to restrain him. If he were to get loose, that would ultimately be far more stressful than some careful restraint. Your best bet is to put on some gloves and just try to make it quick. Don't try to catch him and put him in something to carry to the new enclosure. That will only make you have to catch him a second time and risk an escape. Don't mess around when you go to catch him. Just quickly grab him. Chasing him around the cage can easily injure him. I have the same situation with my Sailfin Dragons. They are getting better but there's no way I can trust them unrestrained on an enclosure move. Their safety is more important under the circumstances. Your new setup sounds like it will be much easier to work on your relationship with him. My best advice is to start touching him once a day. Just a touch. It's a great place to start and build off of. Good luck! 👊

@@madmakerreptile8294 thanks very much buddy once again u been great help 😊. i have been going in to his enclosure give him little Stroke and he does let me sometimes stroke his back too so hopefully he wont kick off too much. I will let u know how i get on when enclosure comes 👍😊. once again thanks buddy 😁

Any time brother!

Thank you so much 💓

No problem at all. Happy to help. I precut all the framing material, assembled and erected it then measured, cut and installed the 1/2" (12mm) plywood. Hopefully that answers your question. Hit me up as much as you need to. 👊

I just realized that you were commenting on my indoor in closure video! Sorry. Is that enclosure is constructed entirely of 3 instructed entirely of 3/4 inch plywood, no real frown is no real framing to speak of. I did precut all of my part is precut all of my parts before assembly assembly.

Stupid auto correct! It's all 3/4" (19mm) plywood with 3" (76mm) pieces in the corners for reinforcement.

@@madmakerreptile8294 thanks buddy ill probably will need some more help lol . Just finding it hard. in England there not lot places what cut wooden sheets to size and deliver as there no room in my impreza 😂

Yes, that will definitely present some challenges. I'm sure you'll figure something out and your dragon will appreciate it for life. Good luck 👍

Thanks! I used medium grade plywood and just used acrylic paint to seal it. I like to use fiber glass to line the bottom of the enclosure. You can also use drylock or flex seal liquid. The ultimate would probably be using pvc instead of plywood because there's no need to waterproof it. Way more expensive though so... Hope that helps. Thanks for your comment.

@@madmakerreptile8294 thanks for getting back to me bud Very helpful. ill have to have a look about as we got different stuff in the uk 👍

Any time! Good luck! 🇺🇲❤🇬🇧

@@madmakerreptile8294 thanks buddy 👍

Thank you 👊

Thanks! 👊

I really appreciate your kind words. Thank you 👊

Sketchup

Wow! Kinda amazed I didn't think of that. I think that would be great. Thanks for the idea! 👊

Thanks!

Oh never mind, after watching I can see there’s a good chance that those lizards are not moving those stones.

@@mcwendel8066 Lol! That's so funny that you asked that question! As we speak, the female has been digging like crazy in their indoor enclosure (still too cold to put them outside yet). Like all day long and I've been wondering if I should have done more in the outdoor enclosure. I will probably dig up the stones and get some wire mesh under them before I put them out. Thanks for the comment!

@@scottkinsey2794 i have a baby water monitor and he likes to dig, wasn’t sure if those guys did. Great enclosure!!

Thank you! That enclosure was actually temporary while my Dragons were little. It was about 4 x 2 x 3 feet. You should check out my newest videos. The enclosures are much larger. Thanks for your comment!

Thanks! That's one of my older videos and setups. You should check out some of my newer stuff. Thanks again and don't forget to subscribe! 😁

You can! I'm going to build a new indoor setup sometime this year. I plan to film it so stay tuned. Thanks for commenting!

I'd love to! Let me see what I can do. Thanks for the comment!

Thanks! 😁

Lol! I wish I could! Lol! This enclosure, all included, was over $1200 (USD) just in materials and was a ton of work. I would build one for someone but for more like $2500. Still interested? Thanks for your comment 👍

Thank you so much!

Thanks a bunch!

I thought you might like that...lol! I guess I'm just as crazy as you... thanks for the sub. Looking forward to your next enclosure build. 👊😎👍

@@madmakerreptile8294 Thank you!! Working on it as we speak haha!! Do you have Instagram?

madmaker_reptile There isn't much on there. I don't use it as much as I should...

@@madmakerreptile8294 aahh too bad!!😅

Do you use IG for your channel? I probably should...

They are doing great! Still going strong. Basically nothing has changed. I did find out that they can brumate. Cool them off a little and they will stay buried and not eat for about 3 months. Thanks for the comment. Let me know if you have any other questions. I'd be happy to help if I can.

Lol! Thanks for the comment. Don't forget to subscribe. I have several way better videos recently. Cheers!

I will I have a baby Chinese water dragon and I will love to learn more about their care 😊

Thanks 😊

I honestly don't know. I would guess they are imports of some sort but who knows? Thanks for your comment 👍
