Hi all!
I'm very new to bearded dragons. I currently have 2 that I purchased about 3 weeks ago. I converted a dresser into an enclosure for them while I am finishing a 4x2x2 enclosure out of 3/4 birch plywood. I used 1x3 and 1x2 pine to frame in a sliding door with a substrate guard. There is enough depth for 6 inches of substrate and an 1 1/2 gap from the lip of the door.
I'm currently getting ready to put a second coat of water based varathane 3x polyurethane on it after I sand with some 220 sandpaper gently.
So what you guys think? I read a lot of info that said that I could use kiln dried pine safely on the enclosure especially if I use polyurethane. As you can see from my next pic, the whole front door area are all pine 1x3 and 1x2. You'll also notice a shelf above the door I added to hold various thing for the dragons. Under the shelf I'm putting a curtain to block light either going in or out since it's in the bedroom.
do you guys think I'm on the right track so far?
