Default My Leopards in the rain

hi its absolutely pouring down outside, so i dont want the leopards to go far into the main enclosure. because they just get cold and i have to search for them to get them back in the shed.i have restricted them to the concrete basking area for now, so they can go in and out the shed as they want.personally i would stay in the shed.please note i dont have the new heat and light system up and running yet. but its built all i need is to save enough money for the lamps and controller.

thanks for looking.i have been making a suspended heat and light unit for their shed and once it is up and running the old heatlamps will be removed and i will post to show it working(i hope)i much prefer to keep everything thats electrical well above their heads and off the walls they are so strong its just not worth one of them climbing on top of another and getting electrocuted.

Great pics, great Leo's Terry, one of mine just don't care about the weather, once warmed up he goes out and sometimes can't be bothered to go in.

Great pics Terry, shows they are getting ample heat from there setup to be happy venturing out in that weather. Look forward to seeing your new lighting/heating system in action.
