Well, my new crestie enclosure is up and running! I think that it looks great, and is my only "real" display enclosure! It's also the first time that I've housed animals together (other than trying to breed my BRBs)

First, I took the enclosure that has been sitting empty for awhile, put black silicone on the back, then spray foam, then brown silicone and covered that with the 'brick mulch' stuff... (yes, I did this over a few days, not one layer after the other in an afternoon!)

After everything dried, I started to add the decorations...

Nice enclosure :) How long did it take from start to finish? I'd thought of using silicone to 'glue' the brick mulch down, but thought it might fall or peel off. Let us know how it works out, please.
That 4th cresties is dead centre in the picture, on the ground under the leaves in the back corner. Great camouflage.

Very nice,


Just how did you put the cork in the back. I have a lot of big pieces ... Do I break them in small pieces ? If I dont they hide in the back of them ...

Thanks, this will give me a few ideas
