ANYONE KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THESE CAGES?

blue_tegu Jul 13, 2003 04:12 PM

I was looking into getting one of these reptariums for my blue tegu, since it would be really easy to clean and therefore probably better for him, not to mention its far more portable and less expensive than the wood cage i was going to have custom built.

Does anyone know anything about these, or has anyone ever had one before? You guys think they'd make a good habitat for my tegu (i'll spruce it up plenty with decorations on the inside!)?

A Reptarium is not appropriate for your Tegu and would be a major waste of funds. A Tegu could tear thru that fabric with ease. I use these enclosure when I do shows and for temporary enclosures for small rescue lizards. I've had a medium sized Chinese Water Dragon dig a hole in one in less than 24 hours.
Not only will your Tegu escape and ruin this kind of enclosure, they are extremely inadequate as far as holding heat and humidity
