Hi guys and girls new to his forum but not new to bearded dragons as i had 3 of the little beauties about 3 years ago, ii have just started building my own viv as a result of going to local pet store with the family when the little boy spotted some baby barded dragons. so as you do I said ok we will get one... I joined this forum to refresdh my memory abit before i got one and spotted some custom viv build thread's and decided to build one myself.
The day after I went to my local diy store and brought some timber and built a viv which is 41inch wide 17inch deep and I think 21 inches high, it is a wooden frame which i then added MDF sheet all around i then sealed all the inside edges and began with the background.
I forgot to take pictures of the frame and foam as I was doing it so this is after the foam was done.
After ii took this pic I decided to add abit more expanding foam( the green stuff) the whit stuff is polystyrene which I won't use next time as it hgets messy when cutting and breaking bits off lol after all the foam was done again!
I started layering on the grout and now I am just waiting for it to dry then decide whether to paint or justs seal it up, as I will be adding a big log and some plants in there to. Feedback is welcome and apreciated , thanks for reading. Scott
