First, was it cheaper to build it or cheaper to just buy a 65 gal reptarium, and second, did you build from plans or did you just throw it together off the cuff/ trial and error? Also, how do you have the top attached, I went back to see the pics but didnt notice it. Thanks for the help. If you want to toss me an email about how you went through with it, that'd be great...nozebleed@carolina.rr.com

thanks, Joe

It was probably easier/cheaper to buy a pre-made cage at first. This is beacuse most of my costs were "up-front". From the initial expenses/supplies I made two more cages for adults. So, in the long run I probably saved a few $$ or broke even.

The top on the baby Jacksons' cage is inset so the whole thing just lifts of of the top. I "winged" the design. Baby Jackons were dropping and I had to move fast!
