Reptile Rooms and set-ups. Lets see them!!

[Welsh]

For the record, I envy you all. Im trying to afford one gecko... I want 1000!

 

[RaiQuee]

I'll have pictures up later tonight...Our reptile room is a mess right now, as we are trying to re-arrange and we got leopards creeping into the snake racks *shifty eyes* wasn't me!!

The only real difference between drilling and using a soldering iron, that I've seen, is with the drill you can leave behind a little twist of plastic that can be pretty sharp. Melting holes leaves no sharp parts.

Plus it is alot faster with a soldering iron.:main_thumbsup:

Okay, I finally remembered to take a picture of my hatchling/baby racks tonight.

 

[KelliH]

Wow, your setup looks great, Paul. I wish I had a basement!

 

[PaulSage]

Thanks, Kelli. I've never lived in a house without a basement, and I can't imagine not having one. I don't know how you southern folk do it--especially when the A/C goes out! Having a lot of extra space can be kind of dangerous though. heh

 

[Grinning Geckos]

Holy cow Paul!!! That's a LOT of bins. I was going to count....but I'm sure you can tell me (number freak! heeheehee).

 

[RaiQuee]

His hatchling rack is 144 boxes...

I never did post pictures of our reptile room/bedroom. I await the day that they seperate. I really really do!

 

[Grinning Geckos]

Awwww....you ruined my fun! I wanted to see if he knew off the top of his head. OK Paul .... What the breeder rack + hatchling rack? And don't say "a lot". LOL PM me if ya want.

lol... okay for the AP racks (which hold most of my geckos, and a few random colubrids) there are 20 blanket boxes, 80 sweater boxes, and 156 shoeboxes. Then I have some other random racks/cages for miscellaneous stuff, but I didn't take pictures of them. :freak:

 

[Grinning Geckos]

Uh huh....just as I thought! LOL That's a lot of geckos .... so lets see some pics, eh?

 

[rrhill]

Hmmm...Paul is a regular Martha Stewart with all those tidy plastic storage totes holding supplies stacked neatly on appropriately sized shelving spaces! Looks like your racks are melamine?!?! They gotta weigh a ton! I have smaller racks (holds 18 of the sweaterboxes...15 or 16 qt size) and they weigh a lot. I will eventually build bigger racks...too many projects right now. Nice space Paul, and you're using it well!:main_thumbsup:

Done.

MELAMINE?!? How dare you insult my AP racks?? lol Actually, despite how thick and sturdy they are, I can still pick them up by myself.

And just because my herp supplies are "tidy" doesn't mean I've seen the bottom of my closet in the last two years. :main_laugh:

I bet that shelving unit would make a good rhac rack though.

 

[rrhill]

The AP racks have what appear to be screws on the side? I thought they were melamine...opps.
I always prefer to build my own, can make them exactly what I want for a lot less money. I'm just picky (cheap!) that way. I have been doing lots of projects with MDF lately and I may end up putting together a rather large rack using MDF istead of melamine because it is easier to cut , and oh yeah...cheaper! Still need to work out some things before I start. But when I get it going, it will be custom to exactly what I need and will probably go all 4 walls (floor to ceiling) in my herp room. I knew I bought a house with extra bedrooms for a reason! When I run out of space I guess I'll have to add-on, because unlike Paul, I don't have a basement. I guess I need some pics huh...

 

[rrhill]

This pic is about a year old...I don't know where I put all of them so I only got 1. I need new pics.

 

[eyelids]

Very nice and that's alot of bins to clean! I don't plan to have more than 28 sweater boxes and 56 shoe boxes....
