Wanting to start a DIY - help?

[Sinya]

So I have a screen cage, not glass like everyone else (>.< is that a bad thing?) but my baby is kept in a room with a avg temp of 90 degrees Ferenheit anyways and his basking spots are hotter. So I want to make his environment a theme and couldn't think of anything cool. I can easily build hiding spots and climbing areas out of styropfoam or wood.

(My baby, Sabre, loves to climb the walls up to the top and it freaks me out so I've got temporary levels in now so he can't fall more than an inch).

So does any one have any ideas for multiple layers in his habitat? A cool theme that would fit with his climbing desires?

My first thought is to make it Killimanjaro or Everest themed. You can form the different levels into a "mountain" like shape so that there's a pinnacle at the top, maybe a little bearie flag or something, and the floor can be painted to look like the plains leading up to the mountain and you could put plants and rocks and things down there. When you said climbing I immediately thought mountains, but there's a lot of other things you can do. A dragon guarding a princess in her tower. An Aztec pyramid shape with tons of levels. You could even go Super Mario themed if you want, which would be AMAZING in my own personal opinion.

I love the idea of an Aztec theme. It sounds perfect. Unfortuantely Sabre passed away last night due to neurological problems but I will be building up my other beardie's cage as well - it's a glasss tank but still roughly the same. Thanks for the great ideas.

Thank you so much. It wasn't really a huge surprise but it was still a very sad morning. I appreciate your support very much.
