Re: need help, building a cage
Plexi is probably the best due to the fact that it has a little give in case the snake strikes the glass. I would go with rather thick plexi (like 1/2 inch) though to prevent the snake from simply pushing it apart.

Re: need help, building a cage
We are going to be using plexi glass then a sheet of polycarbonate behind it, just in case. We like to be overly cautious, we promised the adoption agency nothing would happen to our cat.

Re: need help, building a cage
1/4 inch plexi is more than enough no need to spend all you $$$ on insanely thick plexi the windows in mine are 1/4 plexi and have taken a strike from my tic (she is about 14ft) and they didn't eve bow out not even a tiny bit when she hit it
