    PVC Cage companies

    Looking to find a company that ship quick or faster than animal plastics, maybe someone that has item ready to ship. I notice on animal plastics website their "quick ship" items are 14-21 days. Thanks for any input!

    You can try Reptile Basics if you're looking for a rack system. Or, Boaphile and LLL Reptile if you're looking for a single animal cage.

    EDIT: Also C Serpents. Almost forgot about them.

    Sorry wasn't too clear, Im looking for just a cage setup for a baby/young ball python I hope to bring home from a reptile show I'm going to next Saturday. As much as I would like a rack system I'm just starting to get back into snakes. I appreciate those names and I'll check them out!

    Just get a plastic bin.way cheaper. If you get a baby, any pvc cage will be way too big. I keep my little ones in a plastic bin with a 6x11 ultratherm under it running off a intro plus herpstat.

    I planned on a small one or adding/using a divider until he gets bigger, when you say bin you mean typical Tupperware with a secure lid? I guess I could do something like that until I need something bigger.

    Makes sense, I guess the snake doesn't care what the cage looks like as long as the temps are correct.

    Now take the money your saving and buy a good thermostat. You will have time to shop around for a pvc cage.

    I get my cages from PVC cages. He says 2 weeks but they have come much faster....great cages and they hold heat and humidity very well.
