    Cool Enclosures

    My bp is still young (almost 6 months) but I've already been looking into enclosures to keep him in once he's full grown.

    What are you favorite styles/types of ball python habitats?

    Do you build your own or buy online?

    I'm looking to invest in something that is display worthy (not a tub or tank).

    What are some of the coolest set ups you've seen?

    PVC cages always look nice (animal plastics, vision, etc). I'm saving up for a cage stack myself from Constrictors NW.

    As far as coolest setups, there have been quite a few naturalistic displays I've seen that were really nice, but I couldn't tell you where I saw them didn't save pictures or bookmark threads, just "Oh that's cool!" and move on to next thread, haha

    I really like my cages from Animal Plastics They aren't cheap but they are about as nice as they come.

    They are stackable, hold heat and humidity in really well, and built like tanks!





    Here is a thread I wrote on them with more pictures/info about them: http://ball-pythons.net/forums/showt...With-Pictures!

    Re: Cool Enclosures

    What size AP enclosure would you recommend for an adult male ball python?

    I like that they're in Johnston, IA - I'm from Iowa originally.

    I use the T8 (48" x 24" x 12" L x W x H)

    But anything from the T1-T13 would work.

    i much prefer to build my own, simply for the fact that you can create exactly what you want. heres one i use in my living room for first snake as a show cage. all the rest are in a seperate room, he gets preferential treatment, i know. but heres a few quick shots with my phone, pic quality stinks sorry.
