What is the best cage?

[brookester93]

Im trying to find the best cage for my money.

I've been looking at the dragon strand breeder cages due to the fact I hate having the water leak out of the solid screen cages.

What are your guys recomendations?

Define best cage.

I will admit I am a exo terra fanboy other than their flouscent fixtures and bulbs. They make excellent screen and glass cages.

They make the largest 36Wx36Tx18D that I can find which would be perfect for a veiled or panther. But almost double the cost.

I use screen cages, I buy the clear pvc rolls that are used for winterizing here in Chicago, you use them on windows to keep cold drafts out, I buy double sided tape, tape the frame and use the clear plastic on 3 sides, it looks great and keeps mist in!

Would you mind sending me a photo of your cage?

I like the dragon strand large atrium and will be getting one within the next couple of months.

How do you solve the drainage problem in the bottom?

How do you solve the drainage problem in the bottom?

On the 24x24x48 cage I have a lllreptile drainage tray, it fits under the cage, you make a couple holes on the cage bottom so the water runs down into the tray, you can either suck it out with a wet vac or make a hole in the drainage tray, use a bulk head to allow the water to drop down into a bucket.

Zoomed also makes a screen cage with the front clear and LED's built into it
