Hey folks..
thought i would post some pics of my Sav and the new enclosure i finished for her yesterday..
Shes about 11 months old now and is approx 28" long and not sure on the weight but shes heavy haha..
i got her in her new tank last night and she seems to be loving it so far..
Pretty much right now shes just testing her boundaries and seeing how far she can go, trying to scale the walls and such..
Moving her into the tank was easier than i could have even hoped.. I was a little worried about picking her up as i havent for a long time due to her tall aquarium and trying to gain her trust. I reached my hands in and very gently got under her hind legs/belly and her front legs and not a bit of struggling or hissing she just kinda looked at me like "whats goin on??"..
After being in the tank a couple hours i noticed her pawing at the door so i thought "hrrmm perhaps she wants to see me..". Opened the door let her sniff me.. HISSSSSSSSSSSSS *run away* haha.. So im assuming it will take a week or so to let her get accustomed to the new place and then we can start working on the trust issues again and eventually getting her outside the tank to get more acclimated to people if thats what shes into..
this is the outside of the enclosure.. its 8' long, 42"deep and 4' high.

basking area. (the usual temps are 105F. I'll probably be pickin up a temp gun this weekend coming so i can get a more accurate surface temp reading and get the exact temp i need)

This is the cool spot and bath tub which she spent 20 minutes swimming around in and promptly defecated in when she was done.. thanks Attila.

This was taken directly after i put her in the tank.. Pretty nervous

Another taken a couple minutes later.. still pretty nervous.

After about 6-8 minutes she stopped being so nervous and decided it was time to explore..

and her politely asking me to leave her the #$%^&#$%^&#$%^&#$%^& alone so she can explore on her own.. i politely obliged.

I will most likely be adding some leaves to my top soil/playsand mixture i have in there now cause she seems to like them..
Thanks for looking
