    So much to say here but what comes to mind most is BRILLIANT!!!! You have an amazingly creative and artistic mind! I am so glad you share that with us. I always think that when people build out walls, what about the floor space? You and I think very similarly regarding husbandry! (Only I am not ever going bio) I love the thought of the pictures bringing you back to a place you love and the memories as well as a astetic view of what their home would be in the wild. We do have access to scenery wraps/backgrounds, but it's so much cooler for it to fit your memory and if you can, or like their natural world. For those that don't like the natural look of your species' wild habitat, a nice sunset or your favorite pictures from camping will work. Something that gives you nostalgia works. It can be more about you than the animal, depending on what you're going for. BUT PLEASE DO NOT put up pictures of people's faces or images, that can be scary to them, anything they can see the eyes of can mean stress for them so animals looking away or people not looking is fine but animals key in on eyes.

    Good idea they make the enclosures a lot brighter looking than the rock backgrounds do how do you think they will hold up with the heat and moisture in enclosures

    • @BeachesScalyBeasts
      @BeachesScalyBeasts  2 года назад +1

      They should hopefully last regarding the uv and moisture as it’s the same vinyl used on out door signage. The heat doesn’t Hit the vinyl directly so surface temps shouldn’t get higher than around low 30s on the vinyl. Direct sun outside would be a lot hotter than that.
      In saying that, it’s all trial by error but I’m hoping if it’s good enough for outdoors, hopefully indoors should be okay 👌🏻

      Sometimes I just turn it on when it’s raining outside to simulate rain inside with the low pressure system.
