Ackie cage ??

garlascop Sep 08, 2006 12:12 PM

Can anyone suggest a good professional cage to buy? I know most of you use troughs but quite frankly they are ugly. Is the anything that is on the market that I can purchase that is attractive as well as meeting the needs of an Ackie trio?

Thanks

If you were to get a vision cage (molded plastic with light mounts and sliding glass doors on front), you could modify it by putting a 12" piece of wood in front to act as a substrate dam. They need a foot or so of dirt to dig tunnels in and the prefab cages don't have this "dam". It's cheaper to build one out of plywood and an old sliding glass window on it's side as a door.
