    Looking to buy new cage

    Ok I'm wanting to completely redo my cage setup I am having a hard time with humidity and misting everyday honestly sucks I was thinking something 4'W× 2'D× 1-2'H..... And suggestions and hopefully it has sliding doors as well I was thinking the "t18" (i think that's what it's called) I'm willing to put about 400 into the whole setup (cage,heating,thermostat,lighting etc) any suggestions would be very appreciated I'm just afraid once winter hits and the central hear gets turned on the humidity is going to drop ALOT...thank you in advance

    If you must have it looking nice. Just get a humidifier and run a tube into the enclosure. If you don't care about the look, go for the plastic tubs.

    Re: Looking to buy new cage

    The popular choice is always using a radiant heat panel for the ambient temps. A heat pad/ heat tape for the under tank heating. Most people use the Herpstat thermostat.
    A lot of people use the ap t8 and like it a lot.
    I have a custom made enclosure as well same dimensions as yours but taller.

    here's a set0up guide for the T8: http://ball-pythons.net/forums/showt...-With-Pictures!

    i would suggest getting it with a divider so u can divide the enclosure and get a second BP lol.
