Red tail cages
do any of you know about customcages.com? What do you think about their products.
And one more thing, do you think a 48 inch long, 24 wide, 24 high tank is suitable for a 4 ft and growing red tail?

Re: Red tail cages
Don't know about the manufacturer (I like boaphiles) but a 4' cage for a 4' snake is perfectly fine. You can go smaller if you want!

Their 4' x 2' cages are $200 shipped. They're great.

Re: Red tail cages
While that cage size may be OK for the snake now, b/c it is only 4 foot, you may end up buying another bigger cage when it gets older..save your money and get a permanent cage down the road when you are a little more sure of what your snake may top out at. Kind of a waste in my opinion to spend that kind of money now for a 4 foot snake that will grow more needing, a bigger cage. Or buy a HUGE one now and section it off or put more hides or whatever you need to do to make it comfortable allowing it to grow into its cage.

Re: Red tail cages
Yes, that is true, it is possible (if it's male) that it won't ever need a 6' cage, but it wouldn't hurt to plonk the $400 for the 6' cage if you have the money now.
I've got so many snakes that I can always use an extra cage when one is grown out of, so my mindset is different from someone who has one or two snakes.

Which means "Oh dang, I have an empty cage...guess that means I need another snake!", right? =)

Re: Red tail cages
Yep.  Though my burm outgrows cages almost as fast as I can order them, I would probably just toss him in there.
