Umm...the largest stock offering Sentec is 96" x 30". That's plenty big enough for Burms up to 16'.

Sentec will also make something custom for you if you feel like you need something larger.

???? 96" x 30" for a 16 footer. Ooooh, lots of room in there. Sorry, but no. I've been keeping giants for over 20 yrs. and they like to move more than that will allow. Think about it.

What do you keep yours in then? I have never heard of anyone keeping snakes in anything larger than that.

Current enclosure for my male burm is 8x4x2 feet. Next up is a 6x6x2 feet that will sit on top of the 12x6x4 for my Ornate monitor...

What do you think about the cages designed by Cagesbydesign.com I just ordered one at around 10 grand but it was or is being built to my specifications. Its going to be 72"h x 144"l x 48" d. I have never seen one in person, but have wanted one for awhile and was pretty excited when they decided to go to financing.

well I bet it was the only choice for them considering there prices. nice cages but way to much money for the average keeper. I buy my cages. But if it came down to cbd I would have to opt to build my own. I would be willing to bet You could build a 72"h x 144"l x 48" d much cheaper then you are getting from them. There cages do look nice though

yeah sorry 10k for one enclosure is just out of hand, i can convert a whole room to a enclosure for a tenth of that.. lol i hear they do nice work and everything but i can think of better things to spend 9k on.. like more big snakes =)

I own my own company that builds custom furniture and cabinets. I know I could build those cages for 1/2 the price.

10K for 12x4x6????? I'll continue to make my own. Holy crap!

Chris

I agree with all of you, but I would still love to have one, not getting one but would love t have one. I know I couldn't build one for a fraction of the price i can't even build a box, to hold a box. I blow but if I could find someone to build me one that would be just as nice as theirs for a fraction of the cost, might be worth a really good tip.

try your local cabinet shops. All cbd are is a big box with some fancy carvings to make them look nice. Your local cabinet shops should be able to make you some that look similar
