I believe they are 96QT. What I do is paint the outside sides and back with the Krylon (SP) plastic paint. Works out great. You can pick the tubs up at Walmart for about $9.00 each, then just make a screen top and we use a 48" shop light for two cages and a Phillips 75 watt basking light from Home Depot. Hope this helps.

96q, and you only put one juvi in each cage? You must have other setups to store hatchlings?

Hatchlings can be housed in the same enclosures just set up a bit different. Could house up to 10 per unit but we usually have done more like 5 just to keep all of them happy and healthy. We started using this type of setups for hatchling to 3 months old in 1995 and it has worked out fine. We started breeding beardeds and chameleons in 94 them sold all of our breeding stock off in 99 and starting early this year are just now coming back into them :0) Should be an awesome year next breeding season, we are very excited about the animals we have compiled and we only due pure breeding no crossing.
