day off to day so have improved eric's setup, play sand as substrate an a hide/climbing bit in the corner
just need to get some more big flat stone's to cover most of the floor also have some bunches of grass drying that will go in there for some decoration

It's always good when a friend or family member get one and gets involved with assistance of course lol but a great rescue there. I might go to my local rescue soon and see what they got. It's good when you can make a difference to such a forgotten bunch of animals. Terrible how many are neglected these days

my mum loves them has the beardie an a corn snake.
yes it really is, way to many idiot's breeding them thinking they can make million's out of them.
there's about 50 beardies in the rescue at the moment but the problem is the male's as they need to be house separately where the female's can live together with 3-4 per viv

Yeah I know. We need more rescues etc were people can take them too. I was thinking of building an outhouse and start to do something like that. In time and with more knowledge of course. Not many reptile only places near me.
