Vivexotic Repti-Home Maxi/Med Oak Vivarium | 86x49x56cm | PT4084

The VE Repti-Home Maxi/Med Oak is a timber-construction vivarium designed for species that need a warm, well-managed thermal environment. At 86 x 49 x 56cm, it provides a practical footprint for a range of popular terrestrial reptiles, with a build quality and feature set that makes day-to-day husbandry straightforward from the outset.

Heat Retention and Ventilation

The 15mm wood board construction holds ambient heat effectively, supporting basking temperatures of 90°F and above when paired with appropriate heating equipment. Multiple large vents are positioned to allow heat to dissipate across the enclosure, helping to establish a natural temperature gradient from the warm end to the cool end — a requirement for virtually every reptile kept in captivity.

Glazing and Access

• Sliding front glass doors with a plug-in locking mechanism to prevent escape
• Toughened glass meeting BS EN 12150 kite-marked standards
• 'Easy-access' vents allow heating and lighting cables to be routed through without removing vent plugs entirely
• Oak wood-effect panel finish

Construction and Assembly

The vivarium arrives flat-packed and assembles using locking screws, requiring only a single screwdriver. The locking screw system means the unit can be disassembled and rebuilt if you need to move it. First-time builds typically take 15–20 minutes. Once assembled, running a pet-safe sealant along internal joints is recommended to maximise longevity and prevent moisture ingress.

Practical Keeper Features

• Stackable design — compatible units can be stacked directly on top of one another
• Matching cabinet available separately, rated to hold two stacked units
• Timber sourced from recycled materials or sustainably managed forests
• Available in four colour options

Suitable Species

The Maxi/Med footprint and heat-retaining construction make this enclosure well suited to corn snakes, king snakes, milk snakes, rat snakes, royal pythons, and terrestrial geckos. It covers the size and temperature range requirements of most commonly kept colubrid and python species.

With a robust feature set, responsible materials sourcing, and a design that supports proper thermal gradients, the VE Repti-Home Maxi/Med Oak is a dependable choice for keepers setting up a new enclosure or expanding an existing collection.
