Oh and make sure you measure it so it will fit through your door! XD I forgot to and I have about just a inch on each side almost wasn't able to get it in house lol
Ok I've noticed no one else mentioned this as a warning for others so I will. Do not use pallets for kids or pet projects. They are designed to be cheap and last a long time not safe to build with. They normally use southern yellow pine which is toxic to beardies alone and then treated in a simalar manor to pressure treated wood which makes them toxic to humans if in close contact as well. They are attractive because they are cheap (sometimes free) and easy to find but just don't let the temptation sway you. There not even safe to burn which most people use them for. If you want to use them for projects like a kids fort or bon fired only use ones marked "HT" for heat treated; otherwise there will be a ton of nasty chemicals in it.
A general rule to go by is if you got the pallet in the USA don't use it; 90+% of them are treated. If you need untreated ones be ready to pay a premium or drive to Canada.

I was worried about that when I was building it. But I Sade's them all down to get all the dirt and anything else off the surface of them. My dragon has not shown one signof any sickness. So I'm not to worried about it. He'll everything is basically toxic to humans but we other still use it and still eat it and 90+% of us are still alive.
