The housing you DON'T want
This is going back to the owner. It is what the cutie below came in. These go for $130 at a local store - but it's not the price markup that bothers me so much as the "built in heat" you see below.

Re: The housing you DON'T want
Would be at all surprised that is the sort of thing that caused the burn and subsequent long dorsal scar on our BP Orlah. Not a good set-up at all...what were they thinking? Gorgeous snake though Matt....nice!

Re: The housing you DON'T want
ACK! I wonder how many animals have severe burns as a result from others who have purchased that. What are your plans for the cage of death?

Re: The housing you DON'T want
Give it back to the girl - she's moved her BP into a sterilite so hopefully she's got no further use for it. Doesn't seem like it would be too much trouble to mod a screen around that thing . . . but it would be easier and safer yet to just remove the whole socket.

Why don't you keep it, take that light socket out and put a RHP in it? It'd make a nice home for your Tokay that way.

Re: The housing you DON'T want
It completely boggles the mind that anyone even remotely familiar with snakes would make and/or use a cage like that.

She wasn't home when I came to pick him up and a friend of hers had it ready to hand off that way when I pulled up - ws blocking traffic so just popped it in the back and jetted. I'll be returning it to her when I drop off her first payment in rats hehe. It would make a decent tokay enclosure though without the bulb in there - I know he'd spend all his time hanging around along the inside of that upper front lip - he's a shy wallhugger - think I am going to mount him half a pvc pipe along the walls in a couple of spots to accomodate him - I hardly ever see him on the ground unless he's chasing food.
