Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Finished Bredli Cage
Here is my finished cage. I am not too happy with the substrate but when I clean it out next time I'll fix that and maybe add a few plants. But here is what I have done, let me know what you guys think.

Nice
Try some pothos for plants. They'll still get beat up but they're more resilient than most other living vines I've tried.

Thanks Annabella!
I really don't like the aspen bedding, in a week or two I was planning on changing the bedding to ExoTerra Plantation Soil. Also, I have 2 PVC pipes on either side under all the aspen for hiding, I was planning on getting rid of that and instead buying cork bark tubes. I wanted to add some plants, I have some English ivy and like you said Annabella some pothos.

Just Bell is fine.
I always forget the english ivy, it's one of the few plants that refuse to live for me. I've heard tell it's good stuff though. The eco earth is a bear to deal with in water bowls but my saharan sand boas like it. Moss is pretty nice too but you have to watch it with feeding. I still haven't found a bedding for any of my snakes that I'm completely happy with.
I'm still using pvc tubes for mine but they're out growing them fast. There's a dead tree next door I'm going to pillage this week.
Are those foam rocks for the background?
I couldn't get the page you posted the pics of him in last time to load enough to comment (dial up sucks) but he's beautiful or handsome.. beautifully handsome!

I am going to have a go at the ivy, see how it does for me. So far I've tried several brands and types not happy with any of them. I tried Zillia's Douglas Fir w/ Eucalyptus it had the right color but it was too fine, I was worried it would cause respiratory problems only thing left to try is coconut fibers. See how it looks and if the lil guy likes it.
I love PVC pipes have used with all my snake enclosure and plus they are dirt cheap but I wanted a more natural look to it, hopefully the cork tubes will work well. It's expensive though, but then again most everything is expensive on college student budget
I used foam and "Great Stuff" and then poured cement over it and sprayed on some non-toxic dyes. I kept up with the background progress in this tread: http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/foru...d.php?t=173998
Thanks Bell. He's a real nice looking snake with a personality to match.
