Reptile & Amphibian Forums

I think that it would extremely neat to see everyone's cage set-up. Everytime someone builds a cage they design it based on there personal design but we have all been influenced by cages that we have seen elsewhere. I find myself planning my next creation as I am constructing another. I have changed my design many times over the years and will probably continue to change my design until I get the perfect set-up. We all learn from experience so everyone please share your knowledge.

6x2 melamine

Great looking and huge. Nice to see animals with plenty of room thats why this forum is nice.
I cant tell what that is is it a Chuckwalla(think thats the spelling)?

This is my egyptian uromastyx hannibal

oh ok thanks. I have read about them . Not easy to keep I read special lighting,etc but I can see you know that by your set up.

heres my last cage before the molding around the front face was installed (dont mind that small crack where the light shines through). the cage is made of cheap plywood but i stained it anyway (4'x2'x2' with an 8" false ceiling)

I cant see the pic to well inside the cage because of the light but the rock work looks great.
A false ceiling is like where you hide the lights,etc?
Thanks

i dont yet know the code to post multiple pictures in one post so ill make two posts and hope no one minds. you are correct that a false ceiling is used to hide lights so that the animals can not come into contact with them. i have a picture that i will include with the basica framing of the cage and you can see where the false ceiling is, although in the picture there are no otehr cross bars which were installed after to give the wire mesh, which seperates the lights from the animals, more support.

sorry if you have seen these pictures before as i believe i have posted them all, but ill take more of this cage and the one or two more that i will be building over the summer if anyone needs more ideas.

Here's one I'm working on for my soon to arrive Eastern Indigo.
