Can't put it off any longer...

[justjumpit621]

I'm getting annoyed with little molly, she won't eat unless it's hand fed to her and she hates it. So I can't put off making her a large screen enclosure any longer. She needs to learn to feed herself now that she's better and hand feeding her is just going to make it harder for her to learn to feed herself. She is in a free range right now which makes it near to impossible to let her catch food. How much did your setups cost? I need to make a large one to fit her hibiscus in and I am on a very tight budget. Any help would be greatly appreciated to cut costs, as in what to buy and how to build in a way that will cost less.

Have you tried using a feeder cup method?

Rumor has it that LLL reptile is going to have a good sale Friday from 9am-3pm pacific
I made my guy a 2'x2'x4' and it cost me about 80 dollars

Here's one that I built: https://www.chameleonforums.com/members/beeze-albums-making-aluminum-cage.html but your best bet (cheaper) would be lllreptile. http://lllreptile.com/store/catalog/reptile-supplies/reptile-cages-glass-and-screen/

yeah she wont eat from it. How about making my own glass terrarium? With screen on top and on bottom in the front? I don't know how much glass is though...

Some breeders have had success with glass enclosures, some have found them to be inferior to screen ones.
