This will last for a juvie. Make sure it's not made with chicken wire. Keep in mind the recommended length for an enclosure is another 1/2 again as long as the lizard...so 3' would mean a 4' 6" long enclosure. A 4' lizard would need a 6' enclosure, etc. Granted...we all don't have room for a 9' enclosure for our igs that get 6' long, but as long as we can get at least 6' and some exercise outside of the enclosure...it's o.k.

It looks like it's made with particle board. You'll need to do quite a bit of modifying. Seal the particle board, possibly add some ventilation (can't see the top), more shelving. Make sure and ask what happened to the last resident, too. If it was from something contagious the wood would harbor the uglies.
Yes...you could make it work...:-)
