New bearded dragon, enclosure and to the page

[rwood93]

Hello to all just want to post my first baby beardie. I'm new to having a baby bearded dragon. But I'm not new to bearded dragons. Ive been building a custom enclosure for the past two weeks leading up to the local reptile expo. Where I purchased a male Red Citrus Trans baby (he's looking very dark right now just brought him home today) . So here he is and my enclosure.

I love the wooden enclosure.

And Tito is a beautiful baby!

I used the peel stick tiles work great

I'm curious about the kind of wood and thickness used? and if you sealed it? I don't know if sealing is a must because beardies don't like humidity anyway but I use a water bowl and I know he drinks from it and occasionally throws a fit and spills it haha

The thickness was 3/4" and it was wood for shelving I just liked the pattern in it. I bought it from lowes. And yes I stained and sealed it with a water base sealer only on the inside.
