    Red-Tail Cages

    I was just curious to know what kind of cages you guys keep your Red-Tails in.

    I'm already looking at larger cages for Onyx just to get an idea of what to potentially buy when he gets much larger, and from I've read, a 2x4 is the minimum size that would be required...

    I keep my adults in Reptile Basics 2x4 cages. I have a hatchling that is in a 6 quart tub, and two juvies that are in 1x2 cages.

    AP T10 for my year old male. But I'll move him into a 6 footer once he gets over 5 feet.

    We are using a T-10 for our male BCI. He's a little over 6 foot.

    Lots to choose from. Boaphile, Animal Plastics, many others... You can custom make one even. You're going to hear various arguements for 4ft vs 6ft for females though. I'm still not sure which side of the fence I come down on for that... I'll have to see when I start breeding.
