hi. i'm tim cole with austin reptile serviceand i've been keeping reptiles and amphibians for over forty years. and we're here to talkto you about buying snake cages. of course, that can be a rather broad subject, dependingon your budget, depending on the kind of snake, the amount of space you have -- all the thingsto be considered when you're buying a cage. obviously, aquariums can work, but i encourageyou to get ones that have the locking tops.
snake racks for ball pythons, ones that have loose-fitting glass lids orscreen tops do not work for snakes. they will get out of these. there are quite a few commercialcage builders when it comes to snake cages. one of my favorite, unfortunately, are notmade any more are the neodesha cages, which is what i've got behind me. these are thearboreal cages. and we've got some others
that we use for program cages. vision cagesare very popular and stackable. there are other cages called vorafile, animal plasticsand so on. begin on the internet. you can find lots of cages to buy for the animal.some of these hold humidity better than others. these may be things you want to consider whenyou're buying the cage. some of them have
built-in litter dams, which is always nice.makes less of a mess. some of the cages are in rack systems, where you've got varioussized containers, such as this shoe box size. or we can go with what they call a small sweaterbox size. so, depending on the space you have and the kinds of animals, there's lots ofchoices out there.
