At the end of day 6 things are looking really good, most of the main enclosures are finished

The path at the front needs to be repaired, and still a couple of minor constuction jobs to do. The next job for them is to start to smooth the walls over.

Each wall is very big so allot of sand and cement will be used! Tonight a large lorry of sand was delivered, so I will snap some photos of its movement into the enclosure tomorrow.

Day 5 over and done with already,

The build so far is going really smooth, you can see from the pictures that they really are making progress.

The walls are looking good, and the suggested foundation do seem to be strong enough to support the length of wall.

The forman of the builders, hopes to be finished in another 2 weeks (depending on weather), so this is really cool. We will start to make plans to pick up the tegus from the other end of bali.

Having the brick laying around at the moment is very handy, I picked some papaya for our mealworms today and standing on the bricks saved me from climbing the trees !

Its really exciting to get the tegus moved down here, and hopefully the breeding will be good again this year, but hopefully better.

More updates very soon !!! The weather looks good for day 6.
