heres the cage im in the process of bulding. Its 4 feet wide, by 2 feet deep, by 2 feet tall. Using Mesh for the front, still have to add heating and water sources. I also am gonna add more fake cacti and such plants, (a company called Zilla makes some awesome desert fake plants btw)

still need to redo some of the plaster. for future knowledge, expanding foam is so much easier/ lighter to use than plaster of paris, its a real pain in the butt. I added a lot of clear coats of sealent paint as well, and left it to ventilate for about a month, as i slowly worked on the cage. any ideas left for something for me to add to the cage? or suggestions? feedback?

Cute geckos and the cage is looking great! I have one suggestion, instead of using mesh, I would use glass or plexi glass. It would hold more heat and you won't have to worry about the geckos getting hurt on the mesh.

yeah i debated the glass/ mesh, but the mesh isnt mesh, its like a soft material, its black, and it has holes obviously, but there arent as big as wire mesh. Its like plastic mesh, so it wont hurt them. Holding heat wont be a problem, my room is always at or above 80 degrees (live in socal) and since my room is upstairs the ac doesnt reach me. So with the lights im gonna put in there, it should be fine.
