I am looking to build, buy, beg, borrow or well... something to put two 05 Borneos/Bloods in. I have BPs now and no extra cages. Before I slap down my money, I want to be sure I have something for these two snakes to live in. I have a heap of UTH and Mulch just no cage.

Anyone have build plans, ideas that they are willing to share?

Sterilite?

I'll listen to anything at all on this one.

Bump

Anyone with Cage plans for these guys? I confess I have never built a thing but I'm willing to give it a go

Any ideas on what type/size of cage you want?

Inexpensive, light weight, furniture quality, or what?

Most of the posters here really don't work from plans and therefore don't have a lot of links to share or anything. But we can give you ideas based on what you want.

I would like to have a 4wx3dx2h cage with glass door. I need two of those and 4 3wx2dx2h smaller ones if I go the build route. These cages would be in my bedroom so they need to be somewhat attractive since they are just about the only furniture in there. They would be for BPs and Borneos. I am hoping building is cheaper than buying PVC cages and I loathe the Vision Cages that I have already for the BPs. I would like to use my RHPs in the cages. I have not seen many built cages and am not familiar with the products I need to use to do it since there will be a live creature in there and not my socks.

I hear its like building a box but my mind can't wrap around that simple concept because I keep saying if i t were that easy everyone would be doing it. Right?

Well it is as easy as building a box but it is very important to be able to visualize it first. I think you'll find it easy but are probably the type that will do best with plans that include an online pictorial.

There are a couple of such sites but I don't bother to bookmark them. Here are a couple that I remember.

Worth looking around the rest of the caging section of his site.

Same with this site, make sure to search around.
