[LullabyLizard]

Hey every one!

I was planing on building an outdoor enclosure this spring (to house bluies). What materials do you recommend for it?

Thank you

Thankyou so much for helping imalizard! But wouldn't they rub their noses on the chicken wire? Would perspex (how ever its spelt) or aluminum be better? Also, is it better on or off grass?

Thank you

The thing is with the perspex, the uv rays wouldn't get past it. with the chicken wire they are accessible to UV every where in the enclosure. and as chicken wire isn't rough, rubbing thier noses shouldn't be a problem. Just make sure they have a secure lid (also wire) as they can climb.
