Thank you Jackie
They are in a five foot high by 30 by 30 inch flexivarium thingy by exo terra. This is temporary until I complete my rep house, then I shall build them an 8ft high x approx 5ft wide by three foot deep viv. utilising the wall corner space for this purpose, may even go all the way to the ceiling so that I only have to build x2 sides, front will be all mesh. Will be quite economical to build actually, probably only cost about 20 quid. The ultimate size may be bigger depends upon how the rep house turns out.

Guess what the mellors like salad! I have just been watching them, bold as you like Mr Mellor comes marching down a log, and snaffles up the salad I left on the floor for the crix! I thought the crix had been eating the salad a tad quickly!
I usually put some foodstuff in each viv for the feeder insects just to ensure they are well gutloaded in case they don't get eaten straight away by the chams!
I wonder what else the mellors will eat?
Oh btw, in my original post it should have read mating, not matting, they have not been making mats!  _________________ www.rickslivefood.co.uk

hehehehe I am really tempted to make some form of inappropriate comment here, like that's what my gf says, but I won't. Because that would be so wrong and very immature of me.
On a serious note I need to get some pics of them on my arm so u can really gauge their size, they are awesome!
