The heat will stay in don't worry, you need some serious ventilation in that cage! You can either drill several holes or carve out a section and put in a vent. I have several circular vents in the back of mine, (special saws do this) or you could use a rectangular vent. If you opt for tiny holes instead, then you better make a lot of them.

: Lizzy finally started to eat again! She's been eating only a bite or so each day. But today she decided she was hungry! Thank goodness.
: I also have another question. Her new habitat will be 4'X 6'X 5', wooden frame, plexiglass on all sides. The top/hood will be wooden with recessed lights and her UVBs. But I don't remember seeing any specifics on ventilation for her. She'll have sliding doors on one side. And she out of her cage at least a couple of hours each day. But I'm thinking I need to have some holes in the plexiglass. If so, how many? Would I locate them toward the floor of the enclosure so that the heat stays in?
