AP cage alternatives

[Mittens]

If you’re going to have two heat sources and be using herpstat then you will need at least a herpstat 2. One channel for either heating element.
If you don’t want to wait for the AP lead time I’d suggest either Reptile Basics or Jon’s Custom Creations. Reptilebasics.com or FB to find Jon’s cages. I think either of them are around ~3week lead time.

Thank you, I will purchase the herpstat 2 and check out jon's creations. I'm also considering DIYcages as its cheap but only thing holding me back is if the top panel can hold up the RHP. I called and asked and they said it should work but they personally don't use RHP's on their cages so they dont' have any personal experience with them.

I'm still waiting for my reptilebasics cages, but their claimed make time to ship is 2-3 weeks, which is great!

Good to know, I'm currently looking at the reptilebasics cage and the DIYcages cage. I wish the reptile basics cage came in white which is the only thing holding me back from grabbing the reptile basics cage.

Honestly, I know the lead time are long but it's worth the wait. The AP10 is awesome and will last you a lifetime. In my opinion, if you're going to spend that kind of money, you might as well wait (unless you can find a used one locally).

This is my setup right now.

Looks great! But 14-16 weeks is too long as my bp outgrew her current tub.
