What else can i do?

[Rozen]

So i've had Dudley for about 4 months now. Guessing he is about 6 months old, He loves his little basking wood, He just lays up there all day. Sometimes he runs around and what not but im pretty sure he is happy. He eats about 40-70 Crickets a day and is just living life the way he wants to! Yet, I see him getting bigger and not being able to bask on his log with out his legs falling over the edge. I have reptile carpet down and i don't feed him in his tank anymore (Ugh, After about 2 weeks of doing that when i cleaned his cage the cricket poop wasn't a very nice surprise, But i want to do more for him. I want his pad to be really pimped out. What can i do to improve his tank. I have a 58gal tank and there is so much space that isn't used.

I want to get slate tile and more stuff for him to bask on but what should i get for him? Any ideas?

Hiya,

About 5 months ago we moved our beardie Jade into his new viv that my boyfriend made. It's really big so he has lots of space. I had the task of sorting out the interior design. We have tiles which he seems to like and I have 3 large logs arranged at different heights to create a climbing frame, he also has a large habba hut, a piece of long flat bark held up buy bamboo poles (also have bamboo as decoration) and two fake plants to give a natural look. (If you would like to see pictures let me know)

In addition to the items I have used, you could also think about the beardie hammocks, I wanted one but couldn't find one big enough for jade. You could also create your own backing, there is a really good article on here describing how to do it. I just created an affect on Jades walls by using grout. It all depends if you want it to be practical or just look nice.

Hope I have given you a few things to think about.

Have you checked out the Enclosures forum for ideas? ( viewforum.php?f=34 )

Here's a link to a thread with lots of pic's where you can get lots of ideas. :wink: viewtopic.php?f=34&t=66704&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&hilit=viv%27s+pic%27s+only+thread

Since these questions are about setting up an enclosure, I moved it from the General Discussion forum
