I built this cage from a cheep walmart bookcase. It came with a cardboard back, so I replaced that with 1/4" plywood. I put two locks on each door.(took a while to find a hardware store with eight locks keyed alike) I could have used the hook and eye screw lock, but housing venomous that wasnt an option. I wired lights for heat and ran them each to there own dimmer switch to regulate the heat. My biggest concern was the snakes getting on the lights, but it hasnt happened yet and its been full of snakes for 3 months. I have around $150 into the cage. Not to bad I thought for something so attractive. I have 2 more pics posted showing closer and different angles.
I think it look good! I'd like a bit more info on it. Please e-mail me at blueselaphe@yahoo.com when you get some time. Thanks, Blue

What watt bulbs do you use? Have you thought about bulb guards? I was looking at presicion cages like you they use bulbs in the cage to.

It is a really nice setup, kinda plain though. You should spice it up a bit.~Tiffany

Thats a great looking cage, and pretty creative too. I was wondering how you deal with humidity. I would think that spraying water in a wooden cage would ruin it. How have you dealt with that? Could you please email me or AIM me. jasonttu82@hotmail.com AIM:MotaRaider Thanks alot.
