Wow that is a great build, love to see that transformation from box of IKEA to lush enclosure!
Love the idea to leave half the sides clear to view the enclosure better.
You're lucky to have Garrett around to help out! Thanks Garrett for helping make these builds so great!
Honestly I would have 0 idea how to figure anything out without him! He is v wise 🧙♂
Thanks, Garrett!
thanks garrett!
Does that weed barrier let water through because if not then the drainage layer isn’t gonna work also that coil uvb isn’t going to do anything a linear uvb is better
“I’ve go him! He’s biting me! 😃”
show this clip to anyone scared of reptiles 😤
I love it, so inspiring ❤
Great job. Very creative!
Thank you
got the double door one off fb marketplace for $50 and built it for my tokays.
That's awesome!! I bet they love it :D
@@TatianasTinyZoo they definitely do
I feel like this isn't the first time I've witnessed you open a box with a paring knife. Girl you need a box cutter or pocket knife, haha.
I remember when you first got your day gecko at Tinley. So tiny. Amazing how big he's gotten. Awesome build video. Your gecko must love it!
You know... I have one of those somewhere!
