Well, I am impressed!! So how big is that room?? Sure is alot of stuff in there!

Southern Wolf
01-08-2009, 05:11 PM
That room is 14' x 14' and Im fixin to take over the other bed room which is the same size. :wamma:

The other room Im gonna house the boids and beardies... and this room will be for the colubrids, leos & Feeders.

Im still learning about the supers.... I know you have to seperate the wroms into individual containers... then when they turn into beetles... put them in a tub. So far I have been unsuccessfull in getting anything out of the beetles.

Lets hear so more about the superworms I thought about building a rack like that.

We were just talking about building one ourselves a couple weeks back. Seems everytime I get the snake house organized, something changes and it needs reorganization.

Nice & clean Kevin. Very not bad.

I gave up on taking up other rooms and got a portable building for herps. Best money I spent!

Im prob gonna get a portable for the burmation ... but will keep em in the house for now.

I dont have any company anyway.... everyone is afraid of the critters.

Actually works out to my benefit.

Yup, know the feeling. I'm gearing up for change 15 myself. We picked up a 12 x 24 for an upgrade but it got put to being used for storage after I got fired. Woulda been nice to have the extra room so I didn't have to keep taking shelves 7 stuff down to put other stuff up.

Nice room..I know the feeling of growing out of the room that was to be big enough...Was a 10X10 bedroom now to a 12X20 room in the basement..To soon a room 40 X 20...I hope that will be enough....
