to solve my caging issue for the upcoming hatching of many Uroplatus henkeli babies, I came up with this system:

Those are 20Qt (5 Gallon) Sterilite tubs, on end, with custom front opening doors and side vents. They are all plumbed to a ultrasonic humidifier, with valves allowing me to humidify some and leave others dry. Each row is illuminated by a standard 2x 40w shop light. Here's a closeup:

I will be putting cork on the back wall (when it gets here), pothos in the half pot on the side wall, snake plant in a pot on the floor of the cage, with bamboo polls for them to move about on. I will put a cushy layer of sphagnum moss on the floor, for impact protection in case of a dive bomb, and for humidity retention, this layer can be cheaply and easily changed as it gets too soiled.

Let me know what you think,
Jared
