Looking to ID enclosure

[Horaceunit]

Ebay find. Seems to be in new condition but unfortunately the seller had it for awhile and couldn't remember the brand. Just wondering if anyone can ID it for me? One detail: it doesn't have a knob for the door which I will remedy. Has a fixed top and bottom screen on the front and a hinged door in-between.

I may be wrong, but it looks like an older Reptibreeze design. I had one like it years ago. They have since done away with that top section and just have a single large door with the bottom opening.

No, this is the older model Dragon strand enclosure... I have the older model wide format. You can tell by the latches and the way their is a top panel on the door.

It looks like it is in excellent condition. What are they asking for it? Does it come with the drip easy pan or just the cage?

Thanks guys! I also posted this on the Facebook page and Bill Strand said it was an older cage from LL reptile. The good thing is some of the dragon stand accessories like the dragon ledges, trays, and hydration mounts will fit which is a big plus and the main reason I wanted to ID it! I really appreciate the input though!

I already snagged it up! It was less than what I was seeing the same size reptibreeze for. Although they seem to be hard to get currently.

Awesome. So Dragon strand makes the drip trays and the dragon ledges that you can buy for it as well. https://dragonstrand.com/

These are excellent enclosures they do not rust like reptibreeze will.

Thanks! I'm actually going to get the accessory pack with the tray, Dragon ledges, and hydration mounts.

There is a very subtle trick to this. I use the same team that used to make the "LLL Cage" so our cages looked very similar. I made a number of changes including removing the rusting parts, but in those first months the tell tale difference between the Dragon Strand and LLL cages was that all of the Dragon Strand cages had door handles. I HATED trying to open the doors by wedging my fingers between the panels! This was circa 2014.

Ahhh ok so this one although very similar to my older model medium tall is the LLL cage because it does not have the handle? I will make sure to look for that moving forward. The only aspect that made me pause was the hinges on this one because they are metal and mine are the plastic. But I thought maybe I had an upgraded hinge.

So sorry @Horaceunit I gave you incorrect info.

The number of people that could make this differentiation could be counted on one hand with fingers left over!

Nah! All info is good!

Exactly! The most important thing is the size is appropriate. The real reason for the inquiry was to make sure I knew if certain accessories would fit or not.

Doing some more work on the enclosure
this weekend. The back and the sides have plastic on them now. Also added a handle on the front to aid in opening/closing the door. Also a knob on the bottom door that swings up to give access to a tray.

Looking good!!
Those plastic panels are a good move IMO.

 

[Horaceunit]

Thanks! Got a ways to go but getting there.

 

[Horaceunit]

Getting closer! The Vivosun 4 bulb fixture and bulbs came today. I got the Arcadia bulb last week but with it I've got light and uvb covered!

 

[ERKleRose]

Yay!

 

[Horaceunit]

Another part came in!

 

[ERKleRose]

Awesome! I can't wait for the big reveal!
