    homemade cage

    I have a male retic who is about 4 feet. He is my only retic but i plan to add one more next year and sure enough more after that.

    I keep my tic in a 41qt tub but I know he will need much more space fast. So I want to get him into a bigger cage but i dont know what i want.

    I have been looking into cages here. www.monster-cages.com
    I like them but i find them a bit expensive.

    Can anyone here please show me how to make a homemade cage? I have never built one, just a wooden rack for my ball pythons. So I dont know what materials would I use. Can anyone be of any help?

    Snakes have blood, feal fear, breathe air, eat food, drink water, reproduce, and they happen to live in a body which is difficult for the average person to understand. One fears what one doesn't understand. ignorance creates fear. The fear of snakes is not cultivated…we are not born with it…children love snakes, just as naturally as they love dogs and cats. don’t be afraid of a reptile’s tongue…the only animal that can hurt you with its tongue is the human being.
