ARS vs. Freedom Breeder..

KevMadden Sep 02, 2011 06:46 PM

What is the difference in materials? Is one better than the other at holding up to cleaning? What are the advantage and disadvantage of each?

Thanks,

Kevin

I've seen both at a reptile show. I could not find any appreciable difference. Quality was A-plus on both.

What you need to be mindful of is the width of the racks. Some of the FB and ARS racks are 2 or 3 boxes wide. My snake room is so small that I could not fit the FB or ARS model I was originally looking at in that room with the other cages I have. Had to go with another mfgr. So measure first.

I think that the main difference between ARS and FB is the location. I live on the West Coast, so it made more sense for me to go with Freedom Breeder, as they deliver to a local show. Another difference is the ventilation. FB ventilation is much more versatile. It seems to me that the FB tubs are also somewhat easier to get replacements for.
