Hmmmmmm funny, but I do have lots of cages made with FRP and I kept and pair one pair of PTS's for 14 years. The female averaged one baby a year for that time. I found them to be great lizards.

I did not see a real need for FRP with them. I you give them hollow logs,(with build in access) then they never scratch to get out.

FRP is a great lining. You can apply it with your choice of glue, waterproof(solvent based) and water based. I have used both and have not had a problem with either. I started with using the corner products made for the installation of this product, then started using a white silicone for the corners. If you cut it with a saw, you will be one itchy son of a gun. I use tin snips or a metal nipper(electric) to cut it and they make no fiberglass dust to breath or itch.

Once you learn methods that work for you, then its very easy to do. Like installing it before the cage gets assembled, this makes it very easy and a sounder construction. Good luck and show some pics of the cage and lizards. FR
