OK, I'm really annoyed now. That picture is of MY cage (and my hubby next to it!) The cage plans for that (and other cages I have built) are distributed for FREE at my website and at the IgDen website. I certainly hope that person isn't trying to sell the plans I designed. I have reported them to ebay. *grrr*

If you want those plans, please, feel free to use them - they are at http://www.iguanaden.com/housing/pvc3.htm , along with several other different plans.

You definitely want the plain metal. The rubber coated metal would be far more likely to melt and burn. I use metal hardware cloth for the tops of the cages and the plastic garden mesh just for the sides.
