Here is a shot of the entire cage:



Another angle showing the fully adjustable side vents:



A shot of the interior of the cage:



Here is a close-up of the side vent:



A vent with the door removed entirely:



The two vents of course are totally independent of each other for maximum flexibility of air flow.



This particular cage is 2' wide at the front, 18" deep front to back and 17 1/2" high. I have made three other sizes as well. Haven't calculated pricing yet but wanted to get the first photographs out as soon as possible. I just wish I had a GREEN snake to put in this thing for the best possible photograph. It's all great fun!

The cage looks awesome, Jeff. I especially like the vent idea with the doors. When are you gonna make me one of 'em 3' or 4' wide, 2' tall cages for my JCP? [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]

Those look Awesome...but what about perches? I'm not familiar with your cages, so, is it ok for drilling holes for the perches or what?

Yeah, what about adding factory perch holders for dowel rod or plastic rod?
Be a lot better than having people void the warranty and ruin the cage by cutting and drilling!

Something of a horse shoe shaped hoop on both sides in a couple of areas would be great!


I'll even draw the plans, patent them and take a percentage off the sales for ya!

It's possible, but I think the Jeffster wants to keep cages stackable.

Oh great thanx Jeff now I have to get some of those and do a review on them to. Joe is gonna be hounding me to get him a rack of those bad boys to. You aren't helping me save money here. You know everytime you come up with sometheing like this Joe has to have it. He's had me searching for arboreal cages. I agree with everyone that you need to add some perches or perch holders, and maybe misting systems as well. what are the other sizes you have built? I would like to keep everything in 6' stacks like the rack of classics I got from you. Anyway keep up the killer work. [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_cool.gif[/img]
