Question for RBI Cage Owners

[snakewrangler]

I've seen quite a few people on this board buying/using RBI products. I don't have any myself, but I'd like to get some feedback on the cages.

I currently use Neodesha, Vision, and Boamaster brand cages. The biggest challenge that I am having with my cages is cleaning the urates and feces that end up in the seams of the cage. The Neodeshas/Visions are molded with rounded corners, so its not really an issue, but the Boamasters are rectangular. In order to minimize the mess, I 'caulked' the seams with aquarium-grade silicone, but its still not what I would call an 'easy' cleanup.

I've never seen the RBI cages in person, so my question to you all is about the construction of the 3- and 4-footers. Are there seams that need to be sealed heavily like Boamasters, or are they rounded like the molded plastic cages?

Thanks in advance.

Not only are RBI cages rounded, they have 'one piece' design and are a very slick plastic for ease of cleaning. They are great cages, look really nice, come assembled with heat built in, and are LIGHT-WEIGHT! That's not easy when it comes to larger cages.

RBI cages come ready to 'plug and play'!!
They hold the heat and humidity really well even though being very well ventilated.
Rich offers several heating options based on each keepers environment.
He ships them UPS and shipping is included in the price.
I have 6 of his cages and would not ever think to look at another cage manufacturer-- they are just that perfect!!

I have purchased 4 of his cages and I must say that they are awesome. Easy to clean (seamed sealed rounded edges) and smooth (no rough spots for stuff to stick in. The design is great. I just moved from Portland Oregon to SC and the humidity stayed right at 55% in both locations even though the two states have vastly different humidity levels. Like another person said, light and the heat is built in...use a rheostat or thermostat (preferred). I got a light in one but find that I don't really ever use it, so unless you just have to have it forgo that option. Great construction!!! I will buy more if I get more BP's.
