First rep room finished!

[reptileparadise]

Well... Close enough! Some minor details still to be done, but being a proud dad........


Moved homes end December and started the build after some personal issues somewhere end January I think...

Look like crap... right? Well, my dad (the round faced chinese guy above...) and I turned it into this.
On the left, you can sorta see the door where you come in

A bit to the left, two more Morelia enclosures, one row of small python enclosures (Antaresia) and a bit of garterenclose showing...

Even more to the left, 15 more, all garter enclosures

Now, to build rep room 2
This room will be smaller and mainly for baby pythons. It will house Lanzo racks and perhaps some arboreal python enclosures.
This room is 2m x 3m


Thanks for looking!

Now that's a reptile room and a half!

That looks great! Can't wait to see it when it's full of critters :)

[guidofatherof5]

Sweeet.

[Steveo]

Another room of that? You'll be bigger than some reptile stores! :p

Nice work. I've been looking forward to seeing some pictures. :)

I'm particularly fond of laminate floor in a reptile room - the little critters don't get such a good grip in the floor so rapid escapes are less likely, and it's easy to seal around the edge.

Looking very good.

How you find the time and energy to take care of a collection that size, is beyond me.

[reptileparadise]

Thanks guys... Of course, still room for improvement, but with the means we had, not to shabby I guess!

@ Stefan, the number of snakes is everything but impressive.... I just like them in decent set-ups :)

[johnc79@hotmail.com]

That looks awesome mate. Fair play to you and your Dad. :)

[rickymar81]

That is an awesome room.....:cool: Wish my wife would let me make a room ,like that lol

[reptileparadise]

Thanks!

Can't wait to have the pythons in end of the week! Ditto for the garters of course, but guess I will only be moving them on Monday (need a bit of decoration / branches/ leafs / etc.)

[StrmChasr]

That's a really sweet room you got there. Looks super nice.

[Stefan-A]

Do you still work with geckos?

[Robyn@TRR]

That's a lot of work! Nice job.

[reptileparadise]

Thanks guys!

Stefan, not any more... due to time restrictions :) Fill this room with gecko's and you'd need 48 hours in a day, just to take basic care of them... let alone breed!
It does still 'itch' every now and then though, but now living in a small village, with neighbours and everything I don't really want chirping/escaping crickets etc in my back yard.

Life was so much easier on the farm :D

[reptileparadise]

Well, all garters are in their new enclosures and gosh... they actually seem to appreciate them!
