You just had to use a fisheye and underexpose the photo, so we had no real perception of what they look like didn't you!?!

No Will, I'm not going to take another pic LOL. I just think the "fisheye look" is cool to use on shots with nice straight edges. The cages themselves are 24" tall and 22" wide each if that helps you figure it out. This is in my family room near the entry, and the whole thing stands about 5' tall.

LOL, forgive me buddy!

Can somebody tells me what OT means?! I see it on every post lately and i have no idea what it means!!! LOL

BTW, very nice Tyler. I never got the knack of building with acrylic (yet). My brother is probably making his own wet/dry filter for his saltwater tank soon out of acrylic though.

LOL, I am thinking of investing in a few of those arboreal snakes though! I would if i didn't have to buy rats and stuff....insects are easier, for me anyway. *watches a cricket crawl across his living room rug*.... maybe not! I will have to check out the ree boa market though.

Catch ya later!

OT means "off topic," or not related to chameleons.

With the snakes, if you get healthy CBB ones, they're almost always eating thawed rats, I don't see how it could be simpler. Insects and chameleons are a pain compared to the work involved with these. They're very slow paced.... You thought chameleons were a long term project? Try paying big bucks for a snake and sitting on it for 5 years to (hopefully) get them to a decent size and maybe to breed. It's just something different for me, and they're awesome looking as displays (which is why I got into chameleons also). These acrylics are part of why I wanted them too. The cages are so cool looking, the snakes are just something to put in them LOL.

Green tree pythons are more affordable, but they're pretty nippy. They can look great or normal, it's really hard to know what you're getting until 2-3 years into it. Emerald boas and basin emerald boas are more expensive, but are noticeably more docile. Basins are the extreme, killer looking white and bright gold-yellow bellies all on a deep green body. They've got major heat pits on top and bottom of their mouth too. Better start saving up though LOL.

Here's one of the basins:

Tyler your snakes are so beautiful, but I could not do the rat thing, I LIKE RODENTS !
