Hey gang,
Well my 3.5' Male ETB got his new cage last night...he loves it,,he got in chilled on the floor a bit and then tried 2 of the 3 perches and then setted in...I'll tell ya this cage is so nice for him and looks awesome in my living room,,,nice swtch from having him in the snake room.The cage is from Jim At coolcritters..it holds the heat and i got it complete with light and heat panel..MY Emerald did really good too moving him from one to another,,hes actually pretty calm (believe it or not) nice to handle once hes out of HIS cage.
well gang,,thought id share!!!
thanks
fred

hey there
yeah your right,,,u can see his bamboo perch from his old cage ,,,thats how i kept him calm and tried to make it unstressfull.Took his old perch and put him in there on it so he could choose when to explore and go to his new perches and didnt take long...He loves it!
thanks

Nice tank, I wasnt really a fan of PVC pipes but i think I might give it a try in my next enclosure. Eunectes4, I was wondering if you had any anacondas considering your screen name. Nice snake too Alohak.

hey bud,
well the cage was built by jim at coolcritters (coolcritters@netonecom.net)he does etb and atb breeding and also custom build these, its pretty self contained at 30x24x24 it has a built in pro heat panel(thermostat controlled and 18" florescent.The perch design is killer,,looks like pvc but twisted like vines that fit into "T" groves on the cgae walls.It has sliding glass doors with handles and 2 sliding vents in the back taht open and close.and even the greenry has hooks built in to attach it and was included.The cage was 325.00 and worth every penny!!! its like a miniature jungle environment..

Fred, thanks very much for the reply...It looks great and I have e-mailed Jim several times and it really looks like a great product. I like the larger size also since I think an adult ETB deserves more than a 2 ft cube! thanks again for the reply, Norm
