Do you like them? No? Pros/Cons? What size do you recommend? Vertical/Horizontal?

Thanks!

For snakes? No. The zipper 'leaks' and you will have escapes (have had freinds that tried) There is no way to retain humidity or heat. And the mesh is just snags, and abrasions waiting to happen.

Thanks for chiming in....the reason I posted this poll was I was looking at them online at Big Apple Herp and they have really low prices. I emailed them about their use with snakes and received a reply back from "Andy" Director of Internet Services who said that he'd recommend a 38 or 65 reptarium for a corn. I'm awaiting a response from him back as to what are the downsides of the reptarium for corns and why so large of a cage.....if you're interested, I'll let you know his response.

I have a couple of them and i use them to take my reps out for some sun.I dont like them for indoor use because there so dark you cant see anything in there.I wouldnt put my corns in them,they would find a way out sooner or later.Good luck ..Paul
