HI,
I have two Guyana Boa's and wanted a cage built that was large enough for their entire life without having to keep upgrading.
I had a freind build this for me it was expensive and rather heavy but it has been great so far.

It required some assembly due to the size of the cage and door openings in the reptile room it went together in about 30 mins.

It has a shelf with oepning to allow access the entire cage insde is covered with a formica like material to allow easy cleaning. I have since enlarged the openings in the center to allow easier cleaning.

The bottom floor has two heat mats the che's do shine thru the opening but I wanted to be sure the back under the shelf was warm enough for diegestion not fermentation.

The builder came up with the floor vents idea and they have pieces of plexiglass that can be added or slide in place to increase humidity, i keep the vents pretty much shut the door opening allows plenty of air.
I let the cage warm up for a couple days did some temp check with a infared thermometer and the cage hs very little gradients the top floor is around 86-88, and the bottom 82-84 depending on the thermostat.
here's the kids on their first moments in the warm cage.
