Sorry that they're red, it's the heat lamp.

What are the dimensions? How big is the yellow?

The deminsions of the cage are: 84"Lx30"Wx18"H. The length of Nefertiti is over 5 1/2'. Hard to get a good measurement on her, but I'm 5'8" and I know she is every bit as long as I am tall.

The cage looks awesome! I'm looking into getting a couple of these also, I'm just curious to how much shipping was, and if you had to wait months before you get it, or do they have them already cut?

Shipping here to where I'm at in SC it was $128. It came through Fed Ex Freight(semi). I got the broke down cage. It came flat on a huge pallet. The total weight(including pallet was 260lbs). The cage doesn't weigh no where near that. From the time I placed my order & paid til I got the cage was about a week. It took 2 days for it to leave IA to SC. Right now I'm working out the thermostat to get my temps regulated. It's a cool therm. I can program it upto 4 times a day everyday of the week with each day having different temp programs. It has a vacation mode for when you are away for extended periods. This therm is better than most therms for a house, LOL. Any other questions please ask away. I'll try to answer them for ya.

$128 isn't bad at all for shipping a 7' cage, I'm thinking about getting 2-3 of them so I guess that will add up, but no big deal. I live in MO so I'm sure it wont cost more for shipping... I was thinking about the thermostat, but I have digital ones right now, would you think it's worth the money? Sounds like it is, but I'm just making sure. I'm thinking about getting a florescent light and belly heat for the cages also... I emailed them a couple of days ago, I haven't heard back, but it could just be a weekend thing. I will email them again tomorrow. Thank you for answering any of my questions, it's always good to have someone that owns the cage to answer them from what they had to deal with... How much was it total for your cage (if you don't mind me asking?
Thanks,
~Ben

MO? I thought you lived in FL? Or am I that messed up? LOL The cage cost me(including shipping)$767. The extras I got were: sliding glass doors w/lock, 8.5" screened hole for heat lamp, belly heat, hidebox(he had to stretch one of his largest size and it's still too small), thermostat. The therm is digital and has many features. Seems more hi-tech than the ones used in houses. The beely heat(cable) only covers a 12"x24" area of the cage floor and he said it would not heat the air inside so i got the hole for a heat lamp. I'll email you there phone number to call.
