This was formerly the home of a bunch of ground Cumin. Now it's the home of my 0.0.1 P. regalis. The top is perfect. One door for feeding, and one for ventilation.

I found these at SuperTarget days after I spent $30 in Kritter Keepers :mad:



These, with modification, would have been a damn sight better for burrowers. Now, I just look at them and I can't wait til I have an excuse to buy some.

Nice, didn't see that before. Have you tried getting your obt out of it yet? With the small lid, I imagine it might be tough to chase it out if its not exactly accomodating.

If (when) I get these, I'm thinking I'm going to cut the entire top off and rig an acrylic top flat across it. Something like that anyways.....

We recently made 6 P. irminia enclosures out of clear plastic cheeseball containers that we got from Target. They make nice clear arboreal enclosures and are fairly big.

Here is all 6 of them:

I drilled three holes for air in the lid on top, but it happened after these pics were taken.

They have 3 different levels of this container at target. I absolutely LOVE then! They look SOOO sharp! I just drilled 3 Air holes at the top of each side.
