Outdoor Enclosures

[danjmc89]

Hi all

I'm new to this forum and to the keeping of amphibians, but I am experienced in keeping marine fish in a professional capacity, working as a Biologist/Aquarist in a public aquarium. My only experience of Amphibs is my 3 OFBTs that I've had about a week!

Anyway, I was just wondering if anyone has any experience of outdoor enclosures for, or general husbandry of, cooler temperate amphibians? This would be for UK native species, so there would be a period of hibernation required for the winter. Does anyone have any photos of outdoor enclosures or any advice? Sorry it's a bit vague!

Thanks for any help,
Dan
