I believe the height was 17 inches. I believe I mentioned it in the size pieces, but its been a while.

As long as theyre age ready you can introduce them. :)

Glorious Predators thank you my female is 3yrs old and my male is 8 also he is a proven breeder

You could add in some extreme waterproof sealant like 2-3 coats. I've seen others use wood for their pythons and even their chameleons just perfectly fine. It's all on opinion on what you may like but theres other videos showing how to make a full on glass enclosure.

@@victoriaarvizo6507 he clearly didn’t watch the video😂🤷‍♂️

1/4 Plexiglass. Cudnt find anything thicker out here, but with the face plate support it works extremely well. I have a 120lb girl that wont push it open.

Glorious Predators thank you! If I have a lil leopard gecko would I be able to go thinner or standard is a quarter inch

@@sammysweet4421 If ur making this fkr a leopard gecho Im sure u cud go thinner, but it gets flimsy.

Hopefully soon. We've got a few business ventures in the work, but on that note, we do have Retic Lucys baking!!

You can introduce a male now. Ive had one male breed at 9 months. You can try to introduce him. If he starts arching like an inch worm, that wud be a good sign, but most males dont show interest till about 18 months. Males can be kind of weird. Just keep an eye on them if u decide to. My receptive females will usually open up their vent. Other breeders may say this is a female telling the male to get away, especially if her tail starts wagging. Altho if she starts pissing a lot I wud remove him. She may open her vent and start rubbing her tail on him, this means she is ready... hopefully he will be.

Glorious Predators ok I will introduce them and see there reactions. Thank you

Glorious Predators how long do you leave your male in the cage first time introducing them ?

@@jaycruz107 I left my male in overnite cuz the female was receptive but he wasnt. I leave them together 4 days then remove and offer food to each. It took my male 3 to 4 weeks to warm up to her. Just be very careful with any male that is breed ready. They can be Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde trying to fend off another wud be male.

Glorious Predators yes my female is being receptive but my male is not. I’ll leave them overnight than I’ll try you method. Thank you

Becuz the wood is thick, the center support and the polywall protects from moisture, I havent had any sag thus far and my oldest cage is about 2 years old.

Thank you

I have radiant heat panels in a few of mine now just becuz they take up less space and a buddy sold them at a great deal, but otherwise I ise the ceramic. I tried some heat tape but it didnt seem to penetrate the wood enough to give a heat spot in the 88 to 90 degree range. The tape maxed out at about 79f. From what I understand, the heat tape will need to breath on one side so if u do go heat tape it maybe best to go along the back unless u can somehow get a bit of space as to not sandwhich the tape tightly. It cud overheat and melt from what Ive been told. Hope that helps and thank you very much.

Thank you:)

Nice. Post a pic when you're done if youtbe allows. Would love to see how it turns out. :)

@@gloriouspredators1361 I will make a picture and video when it's done :) Loads of work, and ordering the windows when frame is done. It's for my boa constrictor.

Awesome!! Most people do not realize that even humans that are born without any ears or internal ear equipment can pick up sounds thru vibrations. When the brain rest enough on what is known as the mastoid bone it will conduct sound similar to an ear drum, but obviously not as clear. Thank you for sharing:)

@@gloriouspredators1361 update...my BPs new one is going to the end of the couch and either trying to hide in it or sliding down to the floor without me seeing him and after about three times of stopping this from happening tonight I was getting a little tired and on his fourth attempt he was on the armrest and I said in a little bit of a stern voice...,,"Ehre come here...no." And he looked up, stopped and slithered right over to me, and I have a long couch. I almost cried and remembered this video. Not sure what that was, but it was a first, but as I am typing this he is already at the end of the couch looking at the floor. lol. But then again he is a snake.

Sounds like a starr. My guy still comes and reacts to my voice. He may not understand what Im saying, but he definitely picks up vibration in an audible tone and reacts while none of my others do. Just keep at it:)

Thank you and yes the inside is all painted 3 coats throughout with waterproof non VOC paint. Basically its odor free for like childrens bathrooms. I do not paint the polywall itself, but under it before I lay it down. The outside is similar paint just in Satin Black. Literally these cages will hold a 2 inch puddle of water for days. Female retics can pee like a literal gallon of water. Its a true mystery within the hobby lol so I usually have to use a wet vac to drain it out. This should work nicely for a 4 and 6 foot build or add divider in the 8ft. I do that for some of my 11-12 ft females that refuse to eat when I give them too much space. Hope I got all your questions answered and thank you again.

@@gloriouspredators1361 Yes, you covered all my questions - thank you. I like your divider idea for doubling up space in an 8 ft build. It would be easy to include given you employ those central supports in the 8 ft. Your Cow retic is beautiful btw. Cheers!

Thank you:)

The bags used when people cook turkeys. They put the turkey inaide the bag and then all together in the roasting pan to be placed in the oven. Well some of those bags release a gas that will kill your pet birds if you ha e any near or close to the kitchen.

My plexiglass doesnt slide out but I can lift it up high enough like you wud a normal sliding window in order to clear the bottom track to pull the glass out for easier cleaning. The plexiglass slides perfectly. If you ever have a large female that lays eggs and u want to incubate them, you're gonna want to be able to remove that glass so you can safely get the eggs.

Its coated 1st with a latex paint made for bathrooms with No VOE/VOC. 3 coats.

you can use a water based poliurithane .....3 coats....glossy finish...looks great on my cage

Introduce a male but make sure u tap her with a hook to let her know food is not coming in. Watch their behavior. Males usually start arching like inch worms. Watch her vent.. if she is ready she will open it up and let a scent out to attract the male. Her tail will wag some and usually try to caress along the males body with it. She may pee a little and some say this is a sign she is rejecting the male, but often they will breed anyways. If she isnt wanting to breed she will most likely coil herself up tight and give him no way in.
