New Cage Idea 4 my Beardies. What do u think?

made it so the bottom tank (the females) drawer is 1.5' wide, 1' deep, and 2' from front to back. That would be her laybox. Also, I am not quite sure if I will put a drawer in the males tank, since he doesnt need a laybox. It might just be a whole lot of useless extra work. But I still think it would work well in the females tank. What do you all think? That way I also have storage on the bottom with the cabinet doors (not exactly what its going to look like, got the pic of google images) and the heaviest is at the bottom. I put the blinds idea in there as well using bamboo blinds. The other picture is showing how I can take the doors right off the track for simple cleaning. Let me know what you all think!
-total size of each enclosure: 4' wide, 2' long, 2' high
-they are stackable enclosures for easy moving
-the blinds are for when they go to bed before I do, so I can keep the lights in my room on

Main Idea

designed so doors can slide off for cleaning



HOW TO COVER DRAWERS WITH TILE
step 1

step 2

step 3


back wall idea (for easy customized sun bathing)

The male will be on the top enclosure and the female will be on the bottom enclosure. The large drawer for the female is 1.5' wide by 2' deep and 1' low. It will be made into her laybox once shes prego. Id make it the most ideal laybox ever.
