which terra is the best

[Faolan]

I'm currently torn between animal plastics, vision products, and showcase cages and would like to know your opinion. which cages would be best for a ball python, I'm talking longevity, weight, ease of cleaning, firehazard, considering the prices, and how good the companies service is. On the subject of price I'd like to consider the buying of extra features such as the lighting, heating, and locking system that must be purchased separately. I would love to hear your experiences and reviews for these products.

I use AP cages. I chose them over the other companies because I feel that their product has a better design, and is a better value for money.

I really don't like the design of Vision cages. They are harder to heat than the other companies cages.

Showcase cages are horrendously overpriced. They have nice aesthetics, but they cost way too much for not offering anything that AP doesn't for less money.

AP has the most options in terms of cage sizes, and extras. plus they are willing to customize cages often at no additional cost. Their cages are also the only one you listed that can be dissembled which makes moving with them much easier if you have a bunch like I do. And to top it all off their customer service is second to none.

Go for AP! They have everything you're looking for and will give you the best bang for your buck.

I too really like the AP cages: they have air vents on the sides and back (the T8s)

Here is a threads that goes over AP cages in detail:

This is a AP T8 (Terrestrial Series)









You can have AP install some screens for ventilation/lamp fixtures:





Here is a T12 and a T8 stacked:

what about the light fixtures and tubes for the humidifiers? I can't see where those go.

Copied from your other thread:


I use the glass sliding doors. I've had the cages for a few years now and haven't had an issue yet with them sticking. AP uses much thicker plastic then most other cage manufactures. Their cages are extremely robust and are built to last. I can stand on top of my AP cages.

With plastic cages you really aren't going to be using misting systems/lights. They offer the option to have screens installed if you really want to use them, but most of the time they aren't necessary. I usually have issues with my humidity being too high not too low, and I almost never have to mist my cages. As for heat lamps Those really aren't going to be necessary either. A combination of heat tape and radiant heat panels is a much better option for plastic cages.

Stacking Ap cages is really easy. They have 2 holes in the bottom of each cage, and 2 pegs on the top that lock together making them very secure.

Can you stack a T8 on top of another T8 that has a RHP installed? That's my only concern as I intend to use AP when I abondon glass tanks for good. I also really like pvccages.com but agree that AP definitely gives you the best bang for your buck

Yes, RHP's are mounted inside the cage to the ceiling so stacking isn't effected.
