Tree monitor 3d print modeled after my female prasinus who's produced all my greens. 26 hour print and 280g of filament, but worth it.

I can sell and ship these if theres enough interest in it

2,000 pounds of cork and a metric f**k ton of sphagnum moss arrived this morning. Pressed bricks of sphag in 3, 10, and 20 gallon packs. Can sell local and ship. Looking to offload 300-500 pounds wholesale to a person or pet store that wants to drive to pick it up.
For shipping, it sends in 25-30 pound 16x16x36 boxes. Hit the DM

New remodel done so now they're finally both finished. Enclosures are 4x2.5x6. Built myself. These both had drylok on all 3 walls. Ripped out back and right walls and replaced with cork panels. Re painted the drylok, removed all branches and secured them in different orientation to allow for better light pe*******on to lower plants, as well as permanent location for my nest box. In the other enclosure, I have to do a lot of extra work every time she cycles figuring out how to place it as there's not much space in that enclosure. I won't have that problem in this one at all. I also replaced the 8 inch substrate dam with a 20 inch. Went from 5 inches of bedding to 14. This will allow for much better success with the plants, and means instead of spraying multiple times a day I can just spray heavily 1-2 times a week. Really happy with these. Onto the next one though. Need a permanent blue tree enclosure now.

Trying to step up my enclosure game. Pulled out the substrate dam and replaced it with a much taller one. Better mix of bedding better lighting set up. Tore out back and right wall and replaced with cork flats. Repainted left wall. Much happier with this now. Still need to add a couple more branches but this will sit empty till the plants set in. Quite a few reasons behind the change. Better basking spot as the top left one was a bit too close so they rarely used it. Screwed in branches in better spots so I can easily add and remove a nest box. Taller substrate dam means more height for bedding for plants and also less glass surfing from the animals. Above all though I did this because I've found that enclosures done completely in drylok is incredibly rough on their claws and files them down so much that they can't grip anything. I figure leaving 1 wall drylok will still provide some filing but not to the point it was. Will post an update when animals go in to show plant growth and such. I recorded bits of this to eventually put in a YouTube video when I feel like making one lol

Got some plant lights set up in the new hatchling enclosure and the difference it makes is nuts. Camera hardly does it justice. Here's a before and after. Use this link to grab one. Or 10 I won't tell you how to live your life https://thriveecosystems.com?sca_ref=3732160.T0qAHkeoxi

All I'm using here are 2 12 inch lights. Enclosure is 3x2x3. Does a damn good job

91 days since last eggs were laid. Rarely goes over 100 days between cycles. 5 eggs hatch in 2 months. Most fertile eggs I've ever had in the incubator pretty damn excited. All of the eggs in August are spoken for before anyone asks lol

This boy has gotten so big in last 6 months. Honestly probably my favorite tree monitor now. He's so damn dark. Put on good size and weight too
