For those species your choices are fairly wide open since they live in fairly dry conditions.

So plywood, MDF, melamine, or some of the sheet plastics are all fine.

If I were to build cages for either species my main concern would be making sure the cages were able to support the deep substrate I would prefer to use. I would think about that as well as you decide on what to use.
