ok so we have had a bearded dragon ( spike ) for about 7 months now, and i have been building a new larger vivarium for him, so i thought i would share the pics with you all. started like this then i cut the shape out of the background then i started adding the detail after i grouted the 3D background, i added sand in parts of the background for realism, so its close to finished now and finally a picture of spike!!

Fantastic work Kev, you have a real flare for creating a home for Spike. What do you feed him on ?

Thanks for you're comments guys, well badger he has locust, and meal worms, he also has spring greens, but he's not to botherd on the greens Yeah i know what you mean m8, yes as soon as get the Viv finished i will post the pics on hear for you. ;D Yes he is spoiled Les but the Viv he his now is only 14" in depth so he cant roam around to good, so the viv im building is 4x2x2 this is te minimum 1 dragon should have, but it makes a huge difference.
