Outdoor Reptile Pit Build!

- Опубликовано: 12 май 2019
- In this video I show you how I made and set up my new naturalistic themed outdoor reptile pit enclosures! This enclosure is to house some of my Blue Tongue Skink species. I also show you how to make fake rock box hides to add more natural looks whilst maintaining function and the animals needs for more enjoyment for the animal and keeper!

Thank you!!!
@@coopsreptiles2588 It is me that owes you a thank you for the awesome reptile Pitt video. Thank you! Now I am off to bed. Lol
Gotta be one of the best pits ive seen currently making a couple for the blueys im about to get making a small portable one then going to make a much larger one was just thinking of doing a chickenwire with flyscreen over the top but that might not let enough sun in thoughts on that just had a smaller enclosure and some birds got into it so just trying to take much more precautions thanks mate
DAAM GOOD ENCLOSURE MY DUDE
That rock box hide looks amazing
Been waiting for this video so I can build mine in a couple of months for my Eastern's and blotchies
Nice! If you have any questions you can message me through my FB page
@@coopsreptiles2588 cool as thank you!
That looks amazing
Wow that looks great!
I'm using an old Intex pool for our bluey's.
Hey man I currently live in Melbourne and my blue tongue has always lived in an indoor enclosure with lamp what do you reckon will it be safe for me to move it to an outdoor enclosure without any lamps? Will it survive the frosty Melbourne Mornings?
If they occur naturally in your area then it should be able to survive no problem. As long as you set it up right with an insulated area full of dry media it can burrow inside. Just depends on what risk you are willing to take with your animal
Man another awesome DIY video bro. I loved it👍
BY THE WAY NIICE SKINKS
I love these types of videos, really helpful. Do you know where you got all those logs from. Did you buy them or did you just find them? And how big are those pits?
Thanks! Get most logs from dead trees that are cut down. Sometimes they are hollow inside so we just cut them up to appropriate size. Not sure on exact size but they are about 2.1m x 1.2m
Great build, labor of love.
Hey Coop what do you do with the outdoor skinks during winter?
Angus Butler they sleep in their boxes full of hay in the enclosures
Hey what about the joints where one corrugated sheet meets another - don’t you have holes that smaller/younger lizards could sneak through, or vermin can get in?
How do you tell if blue tongue lizard is male or female?
I have a video on that!
Anyone have any tips for a fist time blue tongue (and any pet apart from cat and dog) owner? (also I’m getting a young one)
hey coop how you feed your blue tongues because mine is very picky I have an 18 month old eastern blue tongue male. he eats dry cat biscuit's but I feel like I should be giving him other foods like fruit or vegetables. thanks
OwenFinch wet dog food loaf style that contains veggies is what I mostly use
How many cans per hide it take?
How much did it cost you per hide?
Would you do anything different for laceys to strengthen the hide more or would it be ok?
jake cullen one can and not sure on the cost I had all the materials aside from the foam. Would certainly need to be stronger for laceys id make the concrete thicker
Do you think BTS and bearded dragon can cohabitat together in an outdoor pit?
Depends on their temperament, what bts subspecies it is and how much space
Where do u buy the boxes for your rock hides
It look like he built them
How long did it take to make the first fake rock box
couple days
What are the dimensions?
Do you recommend building an outdoor enclosure for my blue tongue?
Drew Chapple depends where you live and what species you have!
I have a blotched blue tongue
And thanks for all your help👍
Can I do this for a indoor enclosure?
MGA Melly Reptiles do what exactly?
Coop's Reptiles can I do this whole setup for a indoor enclosure cause it get really cold here so no outside
sure!
How much does it cost to build a pit?
no idea! I had a bunch of left over material
