In my boa room are two three high stacks of really nice melamine cages, roller doors, cabinet grade melamine, well sealed and very well constructed. Each individual cage had dual Dial proportional thermostats, one controlling a CHE on the ceiling and the other controlling flexwat under the floor. I never liked the dial thermostats and CHE so took all that out and installed RHP's all aroound. While I was at it I removed the pedestals from the upper two cages shortening the stacks by a foot. Plenty of roon to put a fourth cage on top. Each stack is now controlled by one Herpstat Pro, one channel per cage.

Before....




After....




And the girls that live in them.....

Jasmine, Albino Arabesque, bred by Chester, Sunglow...


Ruby, Coral Albino, bred by Nick Stones Hypo Cyclone...


Coral, Coral Albino, bred by Heath, Motley...


Amber, Super Salmon pos Jungle, bred by Woody, Jungle...



Tootsie, Anery het Albino bred by York, Albino het Anery...


Candy, CBLT bred by a Cherry Salmon



Vanilla, proven Super Ghost bred by Lucky, het Coral Albino, pos het Anery. Just for fun tried tub breeding these two. They didn't seem to care but is hard to check on them without disturbing them. Probably my last attempt at tub breeding, I really like cages where I can just look in and see what's going on.




Vanilla in her new digs from this weekends cage upgrade...
