Sliding Tubs?

ryuman1 Apr 07, 2008 07:10 PM

I have a few reptiles. Corn snakes, leos, and a bearded dragon. All are in glass tanks. They are on aquarium stands, one on top and one underneath. I find it kind of annoying to get into the cages for cleaning and feeding, So i started looking around for a solution. I found these plastic drawers which I think could work. The link below is NOT the actual drawer. The one i'm looking at has solid walls and handle.

Sterilite

I would have to heat these drawers and i'm thinking flexwatt. Do you think this will work? I'm trying to keep cost low so are there any other sliding/front opening cages available at low prices?

that looks like it would work. I use sterlite shoe boxes for hatchlings and sweater boxes for adults. I drilled air holes along the sides at the top. I made my own rack out of wood. it is basically the same thing. I use flexwatt for heat as well. works fine..
