Neo in his new Vivarium
Last night Neo and I had some alone time so I coaxed him out of his hide and got him to munch on a few super worms. I usually call his name softly and he comes out but this time all I had to do was rub my nuckle on the flagstone outside his hide and he trotted right...
Just saw this deal on Slickdeals.net. Great deal on a great thermometer. Includes a free digital thermometer as well. Not sure how long this will last so jump on it if you're in need. Ships from Newegg.com.

Step 13 - COMPLETE!
STEP 13:
Step 13 essentially consists of putting everything in the tank together. The heat pad and reptitherm thermostat arrived from Amazon on Friday evening. I setup the pad, the thermometers, and the thermostat and added the substrate. Reptisand went in with flagstone...
Here are some updated photos to show the nearly finished structure after STEP 12. I buffed the shiny spots and added a little more sand for a natural look. Flora goes in this weekend with pics to follow thereafter. When I took these pics the structure was still a little damp. Hence the...

STEP 12:
Over the weekend I worked some long hours in an attempt to wrap this project up. Fortunately, I got quite a bit completed. However, not everything is ready just yet. This step started early on Saturday morning as I grabbed my supply list and headed out the door. I first...
I just picked up 2 packs thanks to this deal. At this price, these would be perfect for cleaning up after our reptile friends. They're cotton and come in some super-exciting colors :main_rolleyes:. Of course, these would be just fine in your bathroom I'm sure. In addition to the 12 packs...
I was at this game last night with some friends for a Bachelor Party. After being tied at 1 the entire game, Auburn's center-fielder was nice enough to drop the ball and help us out. The crowd totally lost it as did the team! Good times indeed! But to be expected since we are the NATIONAL...
HA! You flatter me so CPS! I'm no artist by any means, as I stated previously. I quickly found that when looking online for methods and strategies used to create realistic looking rock, most tutorials I discovered consistently referenced the terms "just carve it to look like a rock", or "use...
STEP 11:
So I finally found time to paint a little last night. I started by applying a burnt umber color base to the faces of, and cracks between, the rocks. Once this layer dried slightly I mixed some of the canyon red with the burnt umber and applied a second layer to the entire structure...
Thanks to you all for your input. I'll take a look at your suggestions and see where I can get the best deal...
Here's a short list of the items I'm looking to get for the new Viv:
Light/Hood Fixture

Brown/Red (if possible)...
I've been doing quite a bit of online shopping lately (Thanks to the IRS) and have noticed that most of the well-known brands (Exo, Eco, Zoo Med, etc.) are available just about everywhere (Amazon, Reptmart, BigAppleHerp, etc.). I've also noticed some significant differences in price between the...
