So I might be getting my little veiled female in February and came up with this ideal. I was thinking instead of wasting money on building 2 cages, why not just build one cage thats divided in and when she get older open it up.

Cage:
This cage will be 2ftx2ftx4ft divided in the middle at 2ftx2ftx2ft. The divide will be a hard plastic sheet that can easily be removed when she's ready to be upgraded. Their will be 2 doors for easy access to her. When she grows out of the top divide, the bottom will have laying bin access when needed, closed off when not needed. there will be hard plastic sheet at the bottom with a drain for excess water drainage.

The Stand:
The stand will have 2 shelves. A drainage shelf and a supply shelf. The laying been will have its own storage spot that can easily be removed.

Materials:
If you know me, you know that all my cages are made of wood. Well I'll be using petscreen for the 3 sides, alumnuim on top, hard plastic for bottom and middle divide. and petscreen on the doors.

This will make the 3rd project I have lined up for the following months! =)

I looks good but, I want to make sure I understand. When the baby gets old enough you will just totally remover the center divider so cham has a 24 x 24 x 48 all time correct? If so it sounds really good.:)
 
Great concept! If you're going to have live plants, wouldn't it make more sense to put her in the bottom half for support? Or will the divider be sturdy enough to support a potted plant? :)
 
Good point and I'm all for real plants lol

You can make your divider out of screen to place your lights on. Orrrrrr, just use the top half and just hang a pothos and go with your original idea....I don't know, just thinking out loud! :eek:
 
That's a good ideal as well.. It was something I was thinking about since someone wanted me to make them a cage. I did the drawing in 5 min due to needing to be someplace and wanted to post it
