Hey there everybody out there. My hopes from the past couple years of getting a pair of gliders may finally be realized and I've got a question. A while back I'd been researching using a reptarium for gliders and got a fair amount of positive feedback. Now, however, I've found a lot of information about how these are bad cages for a glider due to the risks of loose threads and holes being chewed in the mesh. What are the opinions of people here?

I highly reccomend that you not get one of these cages. Martinscages.com sells way better cages for sale of all kinds of sizes and prices. Reptariums are for reptiles, thats why they are calle REP-tariums. Yes there is the possibility of a hole chewed by a glider and yes theres the possibliity of loose threads, but you want to be as safe as possible when owning a sugar glider.
