Building a cage for a BTS

nomadofthehills Jun 02, 2005 07:46 PM

How would I go about doing this as cheap as possible?

A carnival around me gave out small green lizards. At PetsMart, tons of people came in, and one said they were gonna let them go. Since its NY, that means death in winter, so I said I would take them.

Your thinking green anoles right? So was I...

Now I find out from my coworker that the carival was giving out... GREEN IGUANAS...

So, I'll be getting them in a day or 2, so I'm gonna need Neo's 55g tank. According to a current Reptile's article, that'll last 1-2 yrs.

Soooo.... how would I make a cage, cheaply? I figure screen and wood from home depot... but how big? What size? etc etc...

You might want to post this in the Iguana discussion section, they might have some good suggestions.

Good luck.
