    Talking George's new home

    hey all just posting pics of georges new enclosure i think it looks good george already likes the rock hide
    um the main sun spotlight is a 100 watt and the light fixture has a dimmer on it so i can manage the temp easily on the left is just an old aquarium light and the piece of wood i found that should make a good hide
    ok so on to the pictures



    so what do you guys think oh ya and im using carefresh substrate this stuff is pretty good looking

    Nicely done

    Carefresh is cool stuff, it absorbs the snake poo, and you can just clean out the clumps.

    George should be happy in there

    I think it looks like a nice place for George to live and explore! Nicely done. Only one word of caution-- make sure the rocks are settled all the way to the bottom of the tank, so that he doesn't burrow under them and accidentally get squooshed. (We like George round, not flat.) :-)

    Good point Lori, That happened here once. I now use mostly fake rocks of plastic. Same look, lots lighter.

    George is a girl... Hey there georgie girl....

    Looks good Kevo! I bet George would love some fake plants too.... either beg some off of someone you know... we all get them as housewarming gifts and then they sit around getting dusty.... or check the dollar stores. Sly doesn't feel secure up on his basking spot unless part of his plants are up there too. Then he lays on top of the plant, on top of the log, still in plain sight... go figure!

    from being a little mentally ill, she's pretty normal.

    Re: George's new home

    lol ill definatly look into the plants and yes the rocks are at the bottom of the tank and i made sure the big flat one isn't wobbly either so no chance of it falling
    im having trouble feeding george yesterday she only ate half a worm and today same thing she usually gobbles them up and i have to cut her off
    maybe i need to get new worms they were still alive but a few weeks in the fridge

    Nice, Kevie! You are such a good daddy. You love your sniglettes, I can tell. Kiss George for me!

    Is she going to have an open house? Send directions from St. Paul!
