I'm getting ready to screw a few bits of wood into my boas new viv. Got to wait for custom bulb guard to come for 250w bulb first so i can make sure its not going to be in the way. But thought I would try out so configurations and see what works. This snake isn't shy and enjoys a good climb so I want as many perchs as possible. I was tempted to make a shelf, but I think I will just settle on this. What do you think?


If I can't get a hot spot on the ground when I set up the bulb then I may have to make a shelf for the right side of the viv, and move the big branch over to the left instead.

I think that's going to look awesome. I personally prefer branches to shelves. Snakes just look better on a branch.

You could have got afew bits,that went across the whole length of the viv etc.

Why don't you screw one to the back/sides,rather then having all the wood floor lvl.

Yeah thats a good idea. The piece on the far right was the biggest I could find in shops. Might have to go rumage through the woods to find a piece that would go the full length across.
