    Caging on a budget

    Right now I don't have to worry about putting her in a new enclosure but it is something that I got to start saving for. Not knowing my RTBs parent sizes means that I am completely grasping in the dark when I am considering a 6'x2'x3 enclosure. I absolutely know that glass is well out of the question for me because of its weight. So acrylic is the answer for that. Here is the few questions I have:
    1) How good are the enclosures built by monster cages? I stumbled upon their site and they seem decent to me and not terribly expensive.
    2) I know this is a depends on the size of you snake question but if any of you have a big female RTB how big is her enclosure. I am mainly concerned on length and height because width will be about 2'.
    3) should I have enough room for her to climb? She climbs like a champ now but what about when she reaches 6-8 foot. Will she still do it then?
    4) what kind of wood do you all use for climbing? I had some grapevine but it got moldy so I was really considering plastic.
    5) I was considering a dogger for her next enclosure. I know that sometimes humidity can be hard to keep in larger enclosures.
    6) best heat source for a large enclosure.

    Anything that I may have missed while asking feel more then free to chime in and educate me. I'm am pretty new to boas. Nibbles and I thank you in advance!
