Hey
I have plans to upgrade the cover with mostly cork born slabs and a jungle vibe I have already. I want to get them the 24x18x36 soon too.
They are sexed from where I purchased them as a male and female I trusted the shop owner. They are not babies but as far as their exact age I wish I could remember. I’ll ask him today![]()
I covered more of the space. Not the final scape keep in mind. I’ll attach a pic. I added bamboo and have larger pieces of cork arriving via mail tomorrow. I can throw in the vine today.
I contacted the man but not heard back yet today tho his business hours are shorter opens later on sundays so hoping few! I just said I wanted a male and a female specifically snd he had both sexes available according to him these were opposite sex.
I’m concerned a bit already they have eaten worms and crickets but not utilized the climbing much yet they like to stay close to the ground I hope all is ok. I’m spraying the cage 4x a day. I wonder if an exo 18x18x24 be a better temporary setup than a Zilla 40?
Just read it
I didn’t know there are 24x18x24 without a doubt will likely do that instead.
4) As other have noted, specifying enclosures at 18" tall will be fine for juvenile Tokay, but young adults will need 24" in vertical area in their first year. After that, Long term adults will need 30"+ to navigate comfortably.
I think it's only fair to tell would-be first time Tokay owners up front what they will need for housing so they can decide whether they will purchase or build in steps over time, or save on the total investment and buy/build one enclosure.

I added the vines Elizabeth
Also I really don’t know if I’ll stress them by moving them before they’re settled into the new surroundings?
I ordered 2 more 18x18x24 but I kind of need them for my cresteds![]()
8-9” in total length
And I did yes I read it thoroughly. Combing that right now there’s a 75w heat bulb + 2 house bulbs + 1 red bulb (night only).
I also am considering a heat mat stuck to the side of their next enclosure regulated by a thermostat. They can move to that side and away from it depending on how cool or how warm they need it. That I got from more caresheets.
I heard back from the shop they said those are near 3 years old.
Ok so one more
If I put them in an 18x18x24 it’d be temporary but still better then the old 40!
One more extra move
I am using a CHE
