    Green Iguana cage

    I'm starting to plan my green iguanas cage and how I'm going to build it. What would be the best materials to use? I was thinking plexiglas with some kind of vents and oak for a frame. Any opinions would be great.

    That sounds good to me. Maybe you could use the little round adjustable louvered vents so you can open and close them to get the humidity right.

    I couldn't find the ones I was thinking of... They look like these but the louvers move

    I helped my sister build her iguana cage a few years back. We used 8' long 2x4s and bolted plexiglass to the outside with small ridge vents that are used for roofing around the parameter. If you seal the wood really well, having live plants in soil helps keep the humidity high.
