Congratulations on the addition to your collection. That's a nice design. Should work fine for any non-arboreals. The open top makes for easy access when it's time for feeding or handling. I have used a similar design in the past, and was pretty happy with it. Good luck.

LOL, I thought the design might work. Once older I might have to put a top on it to limit the escaping, but we will see

Cool

Beautiful workmanship, how long did it take? Congrats on your new addition although I am afraid your crickets may get out of that enclosure rather easily...LOL

Did't really pay attention to how long it took to complete. It took since January, but I usually only worked on it 1 day per week on the weekend. Thanks for the comments everyone.

Greg

Re: New style of "cage"

Congrats, you might want to start working on the lid now, cuz if you only spend one day a week working on it, by the time its done you'll be just about ready to need it! LOL

Man this thread is over a year old. Thanks for the comments guys. The "animal" seems to quite enjoy her cage.
