On April 10, 2013 the Serpentarium was heavly damaged in a fire
when the Iguana building blew up and along with the tool/supply building burned to the ground.

The extent of the damage was so bad we chose to tear it down and replace it with a 45' shipping container.

Here we see Tom and Frank installing the insulation on the walls of the Serpentarium.
First the building was framed in with 2x4s. Then sheet insulation was put in between the 2x4s
followed by another layer of sheet insulation installed over the whole thing.

Next R13 rolled insulation was installed in the ceiling which was also covered by sheet insulation.
Then the serpentarium was wired and ceiling lights were installed.
