Well after only two years of thought...... I'm finally starting an out-door enclosure for a few of my Eastrn Garters. The idea for the construction came from an "above the ground" fish pond my son recently aquired. The front, back, and sides will be constructed of 2" x 4" lumber, cut to desired lengths and all held together with dowel pins. Sound odd??? Below is a photo of the pond to give you an idea of the general construction.


I'll keep all of you posted on the progress. At this point I have only cut the 2x4's to the length I'll be making the enclosure and am now drilling the many holes required for the dowel pins.
