I use Vision cages here for all my adult arboreals and I've had to make a couple modification to help hold humidity levels up, but overall I am very happy with them. They are practicallly indestructable have plenty of room to have nice substrate (I use live pothos plants in many cages) and are relatively lightweight and easy to clean.

I have heard that stacking the cages can cause warpage on the cages which may make the doors not slide open as easily. I might be more concerned about this on the model you are looking at... mine are taller arboreal style visions.

	Arboreal Arboreal is a word meaning "related to or resembling trees". Its meaning comes from the Latin arbor, meaning tree.<br> In biology, an arboreal animal is one which inhabits or spends large amounts of time in trees or bushes.

Do not use a Visions cage for hots. LLL Reptile uses Visions exclusively. When I go in there, many of the snakes are on the lip above the glass door. So when you stick your hand in the cage, WHACK. I wouldn't use them. I'd use a Barr's, or Animal Plastics before I used a Visions. Boaphiles are good too. Don't use Precision. I've had nothing but problems with that guy.

What kind of snake? (How big?)

I think that statement is true with any snake that sits up there on the lip of the enclosure....lol even ball pythons will do that crap!

FWIW, I also do not like the lips above the doors of my visions, my hint : I have taken strips of styrofoam and cut to just oversize and snuggly filled that lip in up there. Haven't' had a problem with snakes falling off the lip since then!

When I first got my visions I put a bp in one and when I checked on him one day he was just gone..How does a 4ft fat ball python disappear? He was up on the lip above the glass doors...scared the heck out of me....Now I just think its funny..
