    Really Nice Stand!
    The room is starting to come together in its final form. I still have a big cage on order that is being built as I type, however, a very handy friend of mine built me this sweet, custom, rollaway stand for my 3 plastic cages. Not pictured is the temporary glass cage with the royal in it.

    With the cages tacked 3 high the room has a ZOO display effect especially when I turn the lights low.

    The stand is coated with a Rhino Liner spray for durability. The cages move easily on a carpeted floor. The convenience factor is off the charts!

    Excuse the wood topped table to the left. Its where the new cage is going to be built, but it ruins the look of the room right now.

    Thanks Reinz!

    I'm planning on really letting it rip when the retic cage gets here.

    I took another photo tonight.

    Looks good. Probably does make cleaning easier lol. I have to put an extension on the vacuum to get behind the cages.

    It does and I like the look of 3 high. The top cage will be the royal which is nice. Wallace at face level is intense.

    Thanks so much.

    The hobby is really my rest and relaxation. I'm genuinely curious about the biology and habits of my animals and I find naturalistic setups bring out some very unique behaviors.

    I really relax in that room.

    The stand is a sensational addition. I'm thrilled with it.

    That looks very nice.

    I felt the same way when building my stand, but I wanted it to have a clean industrial appearance and be functional. The ability to move them if needed is so nice.

    Looks great man, really reminds me of the stands this guy had made for his constrictor NW / Animal Plastics caging in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=85V3JrjNO58

    I have been having my stands made by the same guy who makes the cages, but I admit, the openess of that type of stand has made me second guess my decisions on numerous occasions. It seems like spiders would make fewer cobwebs under that style.

    Ha,

    That's James Lee,

    He's a class act and his room is where I got the idea. His buddy built those for him.

    He's a great keeper. Love his boas!

    They seem to enjoy the options I give them. The royal python will eventually end up back in the top cage of the 3 stack here.

    My reticulated python SD x Dwarf will be getting a very large 6 foot cage that will be to the left of these cages. I'll wrap it up with that.

    I personally enjoy the displays and would take fewer animals that I fully enjoy over a "snake farm".

    Having a relaxing room is very soothing and not having to put too much effort in is a plus.

    The rollout stand just adds to the ease of things.

    Thanks for the kind words.
