So as i havent mentioned my gecko's name is Zeus named from one of the greek gods (of course ihave no idea if its a she or he) but anyway because he hasnt been himself lately and me doing a furniture making course i decided to build him something to let him get out and explore a bit more. So i started building this from old drawers.
this is how big the whole thing will be done. (hopefully friday)
this is an idea of the doorway to different rooms (3 or 4 rooms)
What do you think?
o and it will be painted a water bowl will be added and some greenery
and also im thinking of putting mealworms or something in a room so it gives him something to look for. (are mealworms the small worms that dont need to live in the fridge?) |

It's looking great Adam, you may want to go to the enclosures forum for some tips and have a look through some threads over there, they will be your best bets to find out about painting etc.
It's so refreshing to see a new leo owner going to so much effort  |

Looks like an interesting plan.
Will you have a warm area for him in there? |
