I bought a small cage from precision about 3 or 4 months ago. It is a good cage, but I don't know that I would pay the new prices he has. There were some gaps between the material but the weld sealed them, light still goes through the gaps though. I used mine for a pair of leopard geckos to display in my classroom. I am building some new cage stacks to house these girls, so I will probably end up selling my cage in another 2 or 3 months. They are light weight & easy to manage. I would want a lock on the door for extra security if I had snakes or something that could push on the door.

I have some. The material used is HDPS (high-density polystyrene), a very white, clean-looking and very tough plastic. It is tough enough for lizard claws.

The cages are very light-weight and feel very flexible, though like I said, the material is very strong for its thickness, so flex does not compromise strength.

One thing about HDPS - snake poop sticks quite well to it. You may need to use a "dobie" or similar gently-abrasive sponge with soap and water. In fact, one reason people like Vision cages and Animal Plastics cages is that snake poop doesn't stick so well to that material.
