Default Leo enclosure improvement

Hey all,
I am looking to improve my 2 leo's enclosure but nee some idea on what I could do that wouldn't cost me a million dollars.
Both tanks are 10 gallon, but near the end of winter I will be moving my female adult to a 20 gallon long. I think she will be happier with more room to move around and to include more hides.
I will keep my baby in his 10 gallon until he gets a little bigger.

Anyway, Im an including pictures of both my set-ups and am open to any ideas that anyone has. I would appreciate any suggestions on what to do to make the enclosures more exciting for both of them.

This is the enclosure I have my adult female in right now.



And this is her warm hide, she loves it. It has 3 entrances that she makes use of all the time.




This one is the enclosure for my baby, he is about 2 months old.



And this is his hide I made for him out of small wood pieces, he loves to climb on it.

Make sure all the wood pieces are very secure, they may be fine now but as he gets bigger he might be able to move some pieces around causing it to become unstable, and then you risk it falling on him. I am not saying you can't use them just double check them every so often to make sure it is safe.

Yea, I do that. I probably wont use them as he gets bigger. My other gecko lost interest in them (or she just got lazy) as she grew.
I plan on finding a more permanent hide, the wood is just for now.
But yes you are right, I do check them, even now, while he is so small.
Thanks everyone for the advice, I am looking into all suggestions.
