Hi Folks,
For those of you who like all angle viewing, here are pics of enclosures we use for sub-adult and adult ETB's. We prefer Spartan cages, but these lend themselves to all kinds of decorative ideas. They cost about $100.00 in materials plus your labor. Our breeding cages are about twice this size. Basically, these are 24" cubes with a slide out tray for either water substrate or damp paper towels. Extremely easy cleaning!

Hello, I was wondering if the walls are glass. Also, what substance is used to hold the glass together? I am pondering buying one of these from you. Thanks for your help in advance.

Thanks Constictor!

Ryan, the material is clear acylic and is glued together with acrylic cement. I appreciate your desire to purchase one, but I don't offer them for sale. However I would gladly give you the demensions of the cut pieces and instructions for assembly. [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img] Also, the tools that are necessary were not considered as part of the materials cost, as I use the for other things.

That looks really cool!
Would appreciate instructions on construction too please.
We've BRBs and bloods so the wet box is great idea!
Do you also have any suggestions for basking lamps/heat mats for this please. Dont know how acrylic fits in with heat. Im assuming you're in warmer climate than us here.
Glass seems no good with heat mats, 2 of our glass vivs have cracked so far.

Hi Folks,
I am working on a comprehensive construction and materials guide for these cages. That is, in my spare time! LOL I still have to figure out a jig for the doors in order to get consistant cut outs. Right now I am Free handing them and they just aren't quite perfect. I honestly don't know how they will work for bloods or brb's.
