This is still early stages, but here are some progress pictures
1800x650x650 are the dimensions
Chicken wire on the inside.
Opens at the top, planning to put a lock in so it I can lock it when it's closed.
I am going to put lips on the inside, 60cm high, and cover 30 cm with sand and potting soil(50/50 mixture), and of course, I am going to put a layer of wood as a bottom floor so the substrate won't fall out.
Where I am going to put the enclosure, there is permanent shade on that spot. So planning the shade and sunlight of the cage will be easy. I am going to put it on bricks so it doesn't touch the ground.
The total cost is:
R200 for the chicken wire
I got the fences for free from my father's friend
Other things, R200
Getting wood cut for the lips and bottom layer costs R300
Still need to get the substrate, but that won't cost more than R500.
So far, the total is around R1200.
