reptarium vs. tikitiki cage

[camimom]

Ok, so heres my question.
Should I get the 260 gallon reptarium which is 29x29x72
or should I get tikitiki cage which is 24x24d48?

the reptarium has a zipper door, and I am not sure how sturdy it will be for an adult veiled cham, but it is significantly bigger which he will like.

the tiki tiki cage, while smaller, has a latching door, and appears to have a strudier frame to it.
SO, suggestions pls?

I'd go with the tikitiki cage - I'm not crazy about the reptarium because they dont seem as sturdy, and they don't provide as much visibility as the tikitiki!

I think the 24x24x48 is more than enough room for the veiled

Reptariums also dont have a solid bottom...u have to buy an insert.....and like u said are zippered, and have a pvc tube frame. They are more prone to blowing over in a wind if left outside and their screen mesh tends to tear easily(IMO) and the zipper gets stuck alot......they are great as back up enclosures and as outside for sunnying(sans wind)...

Tiki's is the standard screen enclosure and u cant go wrong with it...very sturdy and easier to clean(bottom panel opens for quick spraying of bottom debris) and the screen is more durable.

Go with the Tiki one......cant go wrong and Chad n Darci are great people....

I'm with these guys... Tiki tiki sturdier and I have heard that crickets can eat through the reptarium screen and the the zipper is a pain in the (_)(_)

Haha. I mean i cant go to the store and get them. they dont carry them in the store. But I can order them from petco.com for 75 each and free shipping cuz my order is over 100 bucks. Booya! hahaha. if you need new cages, go get them off their site now. (jsut make sure to leave me two, hhehe)

Ahh ok, I was really to head over there, grab an employee by the neck and demand to see where they're hiding these cages! Still a good deal. Too bad I don't need any right now...

They are. My guy right now is very very grumpy. Hes still in his baby cage, but hes 8 months old, and needs his adult cage. but I am moving next week and will not buy an adult cage, to set it up at my moms house, then move it all over again, when instead I can simply move, oand have it shipped to my new place. then move him in,
