I live in GA and it costs me about $55 to ship each AP cage. It may be a little more for a T25 though, due to size.

Tubs make keeping proper humidity easy and also make cleaning easy... So great to be able to take the tubs outside and hose them out, wash them, etc. I know people that have used the Iris Christmas Tree tub as their male boa's permanent housing (if they stay small enough). I used a large tub to house my BCA and skink while I waited on their adult caging also.
