Monitor Cage

gunny03 Feb 08, 2007 07:58 AM

Im going to build a monitor cage, do you think a trough with built up walls will be big enough?, oh and Im thinking about making the walls out of plexi glass is that a good or bad idea?

Yes, you could build a large box with some vertical tree limbs up and enclose a trough for the moist leaf litter or dirt on bottom. That could be done. You can buy troughs from feed/farm stores for around $100 (at least where i live).
