BLOTCH, the perspex will cut the available uv down acting like a filter, the heat and light will still get through though,is this a problem?

[Blotch]

nah not really - it'd be mainly for heat and light.
And apart from my eastern taking bigger poops, There still isn't any proof to say blueys need UV light. I have 1x 4ft tank with UV light and the rest without - and all my blueys are fine. Only one is the female - and she's doing better now she's been fed. She just took a massive poop.

Well they say "its better out than in " I'm sure its true for her, good luck with the condo

an outdoor enclosure? The best bluey decision you've ever made! Go for it.

just make sure inside your cage recieves at least around 8 hours of sun,u shouldnt need to use perspex for warmth,there local lizards,and very cold hardy,just supply some dry areas in your cage for them so they have choices,as long as your cage recieves enough sunlight during the day it should be fin,and personally,id use avairy wire over lattice for a roof,also ive had bluies dig deeper than 2 inches to escape from out door cages,id go at least 6 inches deep,better safe than sorry,if u use tin around the bottom part of your cage u can just sink the tin down to 6 inches or so,but main thing u need to be sure of ,is that it has enough sun,as they need to be able to bask during the day when ever they like,if u want them to do well

[Blotch]

awesome! Will start pricing the tin now and paying a tad more attention to where the sun falls in the yard. I may have to move the clothes line!!!

I'd love to see pictures when you are done. I'm planning to make an outdoor enclosure for my guys. I don't have tons of room so it'll be about 6ft by 4ft. It'll have a little pond in it for my semi-aquatic turtle. The blueys will take turns in it vs. living in it because I can't make one big enough to fit all 8 blueys and some of my guys really don't like others of mine. Plus it's really only warm enough from may-september. But once it's made I can still use it for a little bit on those warm october and april days.
