Uro caging..question Lizard Lounge 39 E series

viper69 Sep 10, 2004 07:20 PM

I saw this Lizard Lounge...it has screened top, and screened sides that open up. The mesh of the screen isn't large enough or sharp enough to hurt their toes.

My question is this..would they be better off w/an enclosure that was smooth like glass or PVC, OR...would the screened sides be fine too...A pair of U. sikorrae would be going in there. I need people's thoughts..thanks.

And if people could recommend any good enclosure companies/makers let me know..I haven't looked in MONTHS so I don't know what's out there or on the site..Looking as I type.

I got my cage from www.actionscreens.com. They make great cages and are a lot cheaper than the Lizard lounge.

Thanks..but I will never order from them EVER, and that didn't really answer my question...oh well.

a screen cage should be fine for them. i made one for my henkels and they seem to like it..just make sure that the holes in the screen arent too big....heres pic of my 2 in the cage i made em. i think its like 72 or 76 gallons

o and i also put a clear shower curtain around three sides so it keeps the humidity in better

Thanks for the pic and info...I appreciate it.

Why won't you order from them. They are a good company and make well made cages. Also how does this not answer your question? You asked if people knew of any good cages/companies.

I asked two questions...really...the second one was minor..the first one was whether or not Uros. would be fine in vented enclosures..or would an all glass or PVC type setup be better, that is ..solid walls...

As for action screens...I won't get into it at all. Just retelling the story would make me want to puke. I have told it to some people..and have no desire to retell it again. While I think their designs are great, and one of the better ones out there. Well, that's all I am going to say that's positive..anything more would be negative...
