    Cage Suggestions Requested
    I'm going to sell a few of my BPs that are live feeders and dump the RBI rack that I am not happy with. I want to have cages that are better for displaying and cleaning. The RBI rack with its pull out sweater boxes is discouraging when it comes to cleaning or feeding time... the drawers stick and the water spills all over.

    Without spending a fortune, what suggestions do you have? I'd like something that has ease of heating and stacks nicely in a smaller space. Would love a floor space like that of the neodesha of 36" x 19" x 12" I'm just not sold on the Neodesha. Like RBI and Animal Plastics, there isn't any description for weight, materials made from, detailed photos, ways to heat, etc.

    Would love to have your input!

    I like RBI cages, but they are a little too expensive for me. I have been going with Repti-racks lately. If you do decide to go with them, however, ask them to install additional vents in the back. Two is not enough.

    I hate neos and vision cages. I have Boaphile, Rbi and PM Herps cages and would recomend all of them.

    I don't think RBI even makes cages anymore, boaphile has real nice cages and great service.


    P.S. You can send me the rack if your getting rid of it. :)

    waltah!
    Neodesha cages are super light in weight, but I'm really not a fan. The guides for the glass front are very thin and I've had them split at the ends causing me to have to use extra large clips to keep them held in place.
    I like my boamaster, but they're really heavy to move around. They have a nicer furniture style look vs the glossy black cages though.
    I like my RBI racks, but they aren't much good if you want to show what's in them .

    Homemade display cages are the way to go! And not just because I make custom cages. :D
    You can get them to the size, color, and even shape that fits your needs, they're usually much cheaper than the factory built ones, and can be just as pretty if not more so than the others as well.

    Here are a few of mine, just so you can see.

    /www.sentecreptilecages.com are really nice but quite expensive. It isn't hard construction if you wanted you could build your own version all you need is a friendly metal supply place that will get aluminum angle and cut it for you and a pop rivet gun or some nuts and bolts.

    The other idea might be to have a place that works with signage and store displays build them for you it is basic and may not cost as much as you might think.

    I have cleaning my rack too. It kills my back.

    I have neodesha cages and am very happy with them. They're super light.
