Hello
I am getting a few more monitors ( argus ) and i need to know if anyone knows from personal experince if a full grown timor will just simple claw it's way out of one of those mesh repterarium cages. I have never had a repterarium so i dont know if it will hold it. any anwsers will help
thank you

It will claw out of it. Even crickets chew right out of them.
you have mangroves right? well how big are yours and whats there cage demensions. i have two 17-19 inchers and i making a cage 5'8"x2'2"x19" are those good demensions for them?
Yes I have them, I posted pictures of them and cage a few posts down.
I would go a bit bigger if I was you. Mine are in a 3x4x5 cage and are starting to need more room. So if you build your cage that size be ready to make another shortly.
i would bet just about any monitor could rip though those things
you can build your own cage for about 50 bucks
Whether or not your monitors can claw their way out of a mesh enclosure is purely academic, as they make poor monitor enclosures anyway. A mesh enclosure would be completely unable to hold any heat or humidity in.
Your right it won't hold heat, but if I set it outside here it would be heated and humid. hahaha
