Hiya,

Yes it was a flat pack from internet reptile - they are on ebay too, it cost me £55 no postage so was super pleased. One of the pieces of glass broke in transit and they sent me a new one FOC no problem. It was relatively easy to build, you may see my congratulatory can of carling in one of the pics!
I really enjoyed putting it together, just got to get some LEDs as its so dark in there we can't see him!
It is fairly solid but I have sealed the vents into place as they looked non snake proof to me!
Thanks for your nice comments.
Lucy

Ahhh that is definitely a reasonable price.
Mine is a bit bigger, and made it out of laminate flooring, took an old fish tank apart for the sliding doors and made some sliders out of alloy.
Cost about £40 in total.
So definitely a competitve price and nice looking thing.
What size is it?

haha I dry my stuff out on the dish rack too! Although sometimes if I'm pressed for time I'll put them on top of the boiler to dry out quicker.

That's not a bad size viv too.
I only did it because eventually if I can get good wood cheap enough, and glass and stuff regularly (this was just a one off chance to get a fish tank).....
I may try selling some, I am also looking into breeding Locusts and things, if enough people would buy them it would be well worth buying a big heated shed and stuff.
