In Reply to: getting an ig.... any cage ideas? posted by elaphe4herpS on April 01, 2003 at 10:10:27:
10 feet! That's excellent! Heck, if you can afford the space and money to build it, go for it, even if you start with a juvie.
I used to have an 8' cage. There are a lot of ways you can go.
Some have glass on the front only, and the other 3 made of formica, ply-wood, plastic, fiberglass, or even glass all-around. Or have the front wall made of rubber-coated wire mesh and the rest as mentioned above.
If you do use mesh, make sure u will be able to keep things humid and warm.
Since u mentioned such a large cage, inside you can make it very functional and natural-like, without going broke.
As substrate, you can use paper-towels, or astro-turf/fake grass. The latter, you can cut it into squares, with a few spares set aside. That way, those that get dirty or soiled can be removed easily, washed, disinfected, and while drying u place in the other clean ones.
As for branches, vines and decor, because of the immensity of the cage, u can let ur imagination take over :)
Keep us posted, and if u got anymore q's, let us know. Make sure to send us pics when the cage will be built! I've never seen a 10 foot enclosure!
