hey guys! i thought i'd share the digging tower i made out of popsicle sticks for sergeant souffle a little while back! i'm not really great at explaining things, so i can't put in a tutorial, but vanilla has one up on youtube that you can find here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cPbyksbwR_k) that's pretty similar!

without further ado, here are the pics! (don't mind how barren the cage looks, this is from when i was first setting it up. i also made it myself, by the way!)

Like your work!! I need to do one of these too and have a load of popsicle sticks in the post :)

Thanks for the next project!

Very nice tower! I want to make this for my future chinesey (Duncan's not much of a burrower :( )

I personally would increase the bedding level if it's still that low. Although you did mention this was an old photo so I may be mistaken. However, I find that Syrians tend to thrive when given 8-10 inches+ of bedding :)

I cannot get over how adorable sargeant souffle is, and her name is so unique!

Does your little one burrow? I wish Duncan would find more joy in it lol. Duncan says thank you for the compliments :)

Nice creation, Chi! Sarge looks adorable, too. What type of glue did you use? I would like to make one.

Wow, I didn't know simple Elmer's could be used to create such a lovely project. I'll buy the supplies after work tomorrow and get started. Thank you for sharing pictures of your project and Sarge. :-)

It looks nice! I've always wanted to make something with popsicle sticks but they hate me and don't remain stick together :mad:
