I would recommend contacting Animal Plastics and asking what their current order backlog time is - they'll be straightforward with you. They recently put the following announcement on their website, so lead times may have improved. It's worth checking:
"As many of you know the demand for our product has outnumbered resources to provide products in a reasonable time. Animal Plastics has purchased another building and added another robotic CNC machine and more staff. We are running at full capacity (2 shifts) out of 2 locations with over 8,000 square feet of shop space to finally start to bring our lead times down to a reasonable time. Please contact us if you have any questions."

Waiting on a response currently lol I really like their cages so if it’s a quick ship I’d be a happy dude

Re: Upgrading my boa cage, help me choose!
Cool so I got a t12 and a t8.
I’ll set the t8 up as it will ship first (separate orders because I wanted the fast ship)
T8 will get the 6.5 ft boa until the t12 arrives,
The ball python gets the 40b upgrade cause she’s too big for a 20 imo, 1225 or so g and 3.5 or so feet long. She big.

I didn’t catch it quick enough but got a t18 not a t12

Great choices! Be sure to show us when you get them set up. Can I ask what AP told you about shipping times? I'm mainly just curious - am getting ready to order an enclosure for my Carpet Python but am not in a rush for it, so even if their lead time is still a few months it's a non-issue for me.

Waiting on email back, just got the invoice today. I’m not super worried about time, it’s a quicker ship item, mostly I’m eager to get the larger ball python out of the 20L and into a slightly better setup. That said, I’m getting t8’s for all my ballpythons, and will get a split t8 for my leopard geckos. As long as it comes in the quality of what I’m seeing online I can’t imagine being unhappy with these cages, and stacking them would really free I’m some space in my reptile room for totally not more reptiles lol.
Quick question. Can I use just a screwdriver or is a drill the only way to get it into the pvc?

Re: Upgrading my boa cage, help me choose!
The T8s are nice because they're a quick ship item. I have a few of them. The boa would be fine in one of those but as he grows you'll want more height for the larger hides he'll need. I like the T10s for only $30 more but the wait time is a downer. I'm waiting on 3 of those now. I like them for my boas and smaller carpets. Next year I have to decide on 6' or 8 ft enclosures for my larger snakes. I like the T25, T60, and A35. The wait time for AP cages slurps but they're worth it.

Re: Upgrading my boa cage, help me choose!
I did the t18 so 6ft. Figure the boa can be in here for a bit, I’m putting my larger female ball into the boss front opening exo 40b, but I’m going to order enough of these to house everyone if I love them.
