What size shed are you thinking of? I notice you keep lots of species, are your plans to divide the shed/outside area into species areas or do you let them mingle together? What are you plans for the heating of the shed?

Sorry for the bombardment of questions but I'm in a similar position to you and just planning my outside shed too.

hi, no worries what im building now is a shed for my sulcatas and leopards, dont know if i should mix them or not, thinking the sulcatas are bit more robust. i already have a shed that i keep my torts and leos in, that is fully insulated including the roof and with a 1kw electric oil rad, it stays about 60f so thats not too bad. u still got your aldabras ? i would love some of those - very jealous......shed size 10x8 probally
