I had to share my find!!
Found these two amazing cages locally on Craigslist.
I NEVER see these things in my area, there's not a ton of interest in reptile keeping around here as of yet.
So when I saw these I snatched them up! :grabbit:
This lady is moving and selling a bunch of vivariums and cages and other snake stuff. I am so glad I got to her in time.

They're pretty big and perfect to house my boys in- The best news? Only $280 for BOTH cages. I could not pass that up even though I'm broke lol I was looking to get some online come Tax season because these vivs get EXPENSIVE for the uncreative and non-carpenters like myself.

I cannot wait to get them tomorrow and set them up in the living room and have my gorgeous stunners on display.
These are lighter than the 20longs and much much easier to clean and care for. They are stackable and have locks on the sliding front to prevent Tom the Escape Artist from leaving. I love the sliding front, it's going to be so much easier to clean and get my boys in and out of!

I just had to share my nerdy excitement because you guys are the only ones who understand!
I will post pictures on here as soon as I get the boys situated and in their new homes. Can't wait!

I know right?
I have been on the hunt for these things for a while, I just couldn't afford to spend the money on them. I saw these priced to sell quickly and I jumped on it. I'm really happy and excited to get them. I can even add some lighting in there so it'll be really awesome once I get them all set up!
 
Great price! Super good catch. Can't wait to see how they look all set up. :)

And then... you know... you'll have two empty cages just sitting there looking all lonely and stuff. And it's not like it takes any more space to set those empty cages on top of these stacking cages. Time to start shopping for some new morphs! LMAO

DO NOT let my boyfriend see this! Lol! He is like "Once you get these cages, we are selling the 20gallons"
He thinks 2 dogs, 2 snakes and a hamster is "Way too many animals."
I said Pppsshhh you knew what you were getting into when you started dating me. 5 animals is NOTHING compared to what I used to keep lol.
As it is I'm trying to wear him down into getting a third snake when Roylance's babies start popping out. I'll get him lol
 
Finally in!

Got them all set up!
The boys seem to like them, they were out exploring prior to this photo.
I spent a good half hour disinfecting the cages and their accessories, and checking the temps. The cages are PVC and super light weight and awesome. They are now on display in my living room, and I am so happy with them.

Nice! I can't really tell in the picture, are the sliding doors locked somehow?

They are great!!! And your bf needs to just give up and give in...lol. My 12 year old nephew has practically moved in here because of the snakes, and my 19 year old son gives me "the look" and just walks away. :crazy02:
 
Those are awesome I was just looking at their website I'm very much thinking about getting some because I want to expand I only have one sneaky friend but I want so many more and don't have room for lots of vivs, my only question is is there lighting in them or space for lighting? Hard to tell from the pictures lol
 
Per the lady that sold them to me there are a couple ways to add lighting, I think you have to drill in the top and add a bracket... there's more room on there than it seems, so I think you could get a good light in there. I just gotta figure out what I want to do lol I love them!!
 
Oh thank you for these links!!
I've been searching for strip LED lighting that is safe. These don't get hot, do they?

I use stick-on battery powered LED lights as well. Super bright, don't get hot, last forever.

The cages look great! See they're pets AND decorative, like art, only LESS expensive! (I'm hoping your boyfriend sees this. LOL)
I have 3 dogs and 8 snakes, and planning on a couple more, so 2 dogs, 2 snakes and a hamster sounds like you're going easy on him, to me! :rofl:
 
Do you have a link to these lights, or a brand name or a picture? I'm looking also!
