Hey Brian, I coulda just msn'ed you but you're not on.
I need to send you some pics of my albig's cage, I found a very cheap way to make cages that works well, (it's a modified version of an outdoor cage i found in one of Robert Faust's books about Nile monitors) But as you know we can't house stuff outside! so i modified it and find it works well.
I built a standard frame out of 2x4's the cages dimensions are 12 long 8 high 8 wide. it's a monster. I Built the frame right off a concrete basement floor, so it holds the substrate great. I then used a wire mesh you can purchase at home depot for about 15$ for 25 feet of it. So then fastend mesh to it and purchased a roll of plastic sheeting, its seethrough and holds moisture like mad!! the whole thing was only around 50$ to make, and it works better than any melemime enclosure ive made. I know its hard to describe, so if anyone wants to see a pic il put one up soon.
