Vivarium - Lighting and ventilation

Post  SarahJ on February 10th 2010, 11:41 am

So i have both my Viv's now for my Hedgies, i have a 3ftx18 and 3ftx2ft so hoping this is bigger either for them.

I need some advise on the lighting and ventilation

What lights do you use in the viv?

And where did you get the mesh etc for extra ventilation?

I think most people don't use lights in thie vivs. It's more important that you use natural light. My hedgies have thier own bedroom so this is easily achieved by leaving the curtains open 24/7. But I'm sure whatever room your hedgies are in you will be able to provde them with natural light.

I suppose you could use the stick on lights e.g by JML etc

You can get your mesh from ebay

I have both white and black and find the black easier to see through

look around ebay and check out the different prices big smile
