Hi everyone! I'm new to the forum and would really like to get a bearded dragon soon. Unfortunately I recently had bought a chameleon who came with a respiratory infection and I could not help her enough . I have worked with a lot of beardies before since I worked at a wildlife refuge, but I have never owned one.
I heard beardies are good with travel. I travel back and forth from my university every few months and am wondering what a good permanent enclosure would be for this. I would need to be able to bring my enclosure back and forth from home and school. I also live on the fifth floor of my apartment. On top of all of this, I am really a poor college student lol. I've seen a lot of nice enclosures that are like $400... I definitely don't have that right now especially after the Chameleon emergency vet bills... If anyone could recommend anything, I would really appreciate it! DIY projects could work as well!! (but they would probably need to be relatively simple.... I've used a drill once in my life and I am extremely not creative lol)
I thought this was good, but it looks really small and i'm not sure if it is suitable. I would appreciate some feedback! Thanks!
