Well almost Very Happy just need a deeper water bowl and a mesh guard for the ceramic. the temps are OK, think the humidity will drop once i get a deeper less surface area water bowl and its only been a day since i cleaned all the deco so it may be slightly damp still.

Its housing a young dwarf boa of some kind, there's so many to choose from! (i will be buying a larger Viv when it outgrows Wink )
gunna start looking now the vivs complete.

any constructive criticism or comments welcome!

thanks!

Hi, cant say i have ever heard of an infra red gun been used in that way! lol

the temps are steady and read : cool end - 25.1>7
warm end - 30.1>5
humidity is at a steady 60 at the moment, think the logs are dried out more.

they seem ok at the minute though, the hot spot stat prob is set next to the temp stat and they both read the same.
