The coolest thing David took into consideration was...well several things.
1st. He studied the shadows for about a year, for proper placement
2nd. He provided a network of underground rocks for hibernation (as many rocks under the ground as on top)
3rd. He really doesn't have to feed much to his animals. He was very careful in selection of plants to grow in there. The animals get 95% of there food from the natural growth.
4th. He has a roof over a portion of the enclosure
5th. sometimes he hangs supplemental lighting over there at night to attract insects for the geckos. I don't believe he has done this this year, and already has several hatchlings which are thriving.
I couldn't have met a neater person.
