    Retic cage thoughts
    Shopping around for quotes on an 8’ long pvc cage built in two 4’ halves. For my 10’ Kalatoa girl. She’s currently in a 72x30x18.
    Boamaster just gave me a quote on 96x32x15 built as two 4’ sections for $575 shipped. Best deal I’ve come across anywhere. On the fence about having a 3” shorter cage though.
    Other giant keepers out there, thoughts on 15” tall caging for a retic? The floor space is perfect, ideally I’d like to go 24” tall though.
    I have a feeling he’s trying to move currently stocked products instead of cutting a custom build. What does anyone think? Thanks!

    For a 32" deep enclosure I'd want it to be at least 18" high to make reaching into the back to clean it easier.

    Like i've said before and BCR said, anything over 2 feet deep, i'd want at least 18 inch height.

    @bcr229 @sauzo thanks y’all! same thoughts I was having. I’m going to press mark about the height and see what height he can offer at what price. I really just don’t want to go shorter than 18” at the least

    Keep this thread updated. I'm looking for the same options / ideas for a 7' / 8' enclosure.

    I think 24” tall at minimum. Not just for reaching but also for Philly. She needs the height and stimulation. I think it will help.


    And yes, then of course the cleaning and even more important the ability to reach in and remove her.

    She is big now.

    That’s a nice price. I’d pay $100 more for ceiling space.

    Good luck brother👍

    of Your looking for a custom build try Jon’s custom creations and reptiles . I ordered three cages so far and the Workman ship and attention to detail is above and beyond prices are great and the communication is second to none. He also does custom one off builds, from odd ball sizes to water features ect. If you want his number feel free to pm me

    72-24-16 I paid 450 for it with lighting a rhp and thermostat I also just bought two more in black same setup for 900. Like I said if you want different dimensions he can make it and his quality is second to none
