Vivexotic Repti-Home (AAL) BD Vivarium Black – PT4159 (H)

The VE Repti-Home (AAL) BD Black is a full-sized vivarium built specifically to meet Animal Activities Licensing guidelines for bearded dragon keeping. At 120 x 62.5 x 62.5cm, it gives dragons the horizontal space and ceiling height they need, while its 15mm wood board construction helps retain heat effectively — making it straightforward to achieve and maintain basking temperatures up to 110°F and beyond.

Built for Heat Management

The timber panels hold warmth where it matters, while multiple large vents and twin sliding glass doors work together to allow heat to dissipate across the length of the enclosure. This combination makes it genuinely practical to create a proper temperature gradient from the hot end to the cool end — something bearded dragons and other thermophilic species require. The easy-access vents are designed so heating and lighting cables can be routed through without removing any plugs.

Construction and Security

• Flat-packed for delivery, assembles with a single screwdriver
• Locking screws throughout — can be dismantled and rebuilt as needed
• Toughened glass to BS-EN-12150 kite-marked standards
• Sliding front doors with a plug-based locking mechanism to prevent escape
• Additional lock available separately for extra security

Materials and Build Quality

The timber used is sourced from recycled material or sustainably managed forests. Wood-effect panel finish gives a clean, natural look. Once assembled, running a pet-safe sealant along the internal joints is recommended to ensure longevity and prevent moisture ingress over time.

Practical Design Details

• Dimensions: 120 x 62.5 x 62.5cm
• Vivariums are stackable — useful if you keep multiple animals
• Matching cabinet available separately
• Available in three colours
• AAL-compliant for bearded dragon licensing requirements

Suitable Species

Designed with bearded dragons in mind, but well-suited to a range of species with similar environmental requirements — including tortoises, blue tongue skinks, and royal pythons. The internal dimensions and ventilation layout support appropriate husbandry for any animal needing a strong thermal gradient and reliable heat retention.

The VE Repti-Home (AAL) BD Black is a practical, regulation-compliant enclosure that removes the guesswork from setting up a proper bearded dragon vivarium — from the heat-retaining boards to the keeper-friendly vent design.
