Hi all, i am building another cage for a pair or trio of uromastyx that i plan on buying this summer...The cage is 4' wide, 42" tall and the front is shaped like half an hexagon. (i am trying to be creative and fancy)..the cage will be two levels with a "ladder/walkway" to get between floors....the sides will be made out of wood and then the 3 front "angles" ie: -/ will be made of glass and one door or possibly two doors and one stationary piece of glass....i have a couple of questions/ideas...

I want to make the front glass a door, as in a solid piece of glass..any ideas on putting hinges directly on the glass..

Also, heating and lighting, i think that i need two basking areas, but not sure whether to use ceramic heat or something else?

Any other suggestions would be great>>>>>
I will post pics soon of my progress...im working on the frame...

Thanks in advance...
