Show us your outdoor aviarys/enclosures, snakes or lizards....

I don't like keeping carpet pythons in aviaries i am a big fan of reptile cages for reptiles aviaries for birds.
Reptiles can be fine in an aviary for a long time and then one day you get home and a cat or dog has spooked them and all of a sudden you have a beautiful big snake/lizard with no face. They don't seem to fully grasp the concept of chicken wire.

Unless you keep Lacies! Then you just don't have to pay the weekly feed bill.

I'll agree with that, don't see any cats around my lacies cage:lol:

I don't have pics but an old friend of mine use to use a tin water tank he cut it off placed netting on the floor then covering with dirt and bark chips mondo grasses logs etc it looked really good very natural and housed blue tongues and shingle backs. They come in all sizes and cheaper then the tin garden beds that you buy if you get a recycled one.

I am considering making one for my beardies to hang out in during the warmer days. I even have half a water tank lying around but I am to afraid that with the metal sides it would just get to hot. I live in the hunter valley and some days it gets above 40. Even if it was in the afternoon shade I jut wouldn't want to risk it. Anyone have any suggestions on what you could use that could be in the sun (for some of the day) and not get to hot??

 

[Gonemad]

Run temp gauges to see temps but if it's big enough with plants for covering you could even use shade cloth or position it under semi shade like a tree or side of shed. With a misting spray set up.
In my fern shed my hubby made we put bamboo around side and it made my ferns a lot cooler.

Thanks mate, doesn't get any sun during winter down the side of the house due to the roofline-hence only a 9month "vacation"

They are great at retaining heat, a bit like real rock only nowhere near as heavy. 15K!...I'd buy a 4WD for that money!
