Good Setup?

So I redid my monitors cage...does it look ok for a Timor? I read that they need a lot of hides.






Don't worry, the temps aren't that low. I had just got done with it when these pics were taken so it was still warming up. Does it need anything? Improvements?

I know. We are currently in the process of building a cage, so he won't be in it for long. It's a royal pain keeping humidity up, we are keeping a towel over the screen part for now til we finish the cage. I took it off for the pic.

Re: Good Setup?

Spix, really nice decor!!! I know nothing about the timor, but how big do they get as adults?

I also use tinfoil. 2 layers of tin foil with one layer of silver foil tape over it....then I place the dome ontop, trace the dome, and cut an inch in from the line so the dome overlaps it a bit, to make sure there are no leaks. Works wonders!
