Got a super nice one from Blue Beast Reptiles. He can make them any size and they are easy enough for a girl to put them together.....
I have the mesh ones also, the round ones you can hang, and while they are nice for the summer to put the chams outside, they are really not that efficiant to use them indoors.

Put a little Vaseline on your zippers and see all your troubles with them disappear.

I have my female in an aluminum cage and my male in a reptarium. I hate the reptarium. Every time I open the zipper the cage moves so much he gets pissed and so do I. Also, crix hide between the tubes and the mesh, the visibility is poor compared to aluminum screen, and cleaning the bottom is more difficult. The ones from bluebeast are almost identical to the ones from LLL or reptile depot, just the color of the base material is different. All are great cages, the doors open effortlessly every time without jostling the cage and are easy to clean. I noticed the materials used in thier construction are available at Home Depot, but it would take some time and a little skill to fabricate them yourself. The prefabed ones can be assembled in 5 minutes by a complete idiot. Here is a photo on my female enjoying hers outdoors. I plan on getting a second one for my male. You can also find them sometimes on ebay. Thats where I got mine.

thanks for the replys. i bought the 24x24x48 screen cage from reptilehaven off ebay. thanks again everyone

I got my cages from reptilehaven also (Tyler at bluebeast had temporarily stopped cages sales when I needed mine). They are great. I bought the 36". Diane

I got my very first cage from reptilehaven (aka whitenile333 on ebay) and another (both the medium size) that I use for my moth rearing. Got my big one from reptiledepot, but if I were to buy another it would probably be from Chris at RH/ebay again.
