They do, the exact cages chuck mentioned are the melamine line, the pvc 6' and 8' cages are only 2' wide and 14" tall. I'm going for 2.5' minimum and wanting to do 3-4' high.. 2' high minimum; I want to give them the climbing space. The dwarves and super dwarves just want to climb all the time.

Right now I'm thinking a custom animal plastics cage 6x2.5x4, but its expensive. I'm definitely getting my pure kalatoa female a 4x2.5x4

good luck on getting that cage, Id love to see it. that sliding glass will be your biggest issue, needs to be put on rollers or something its just so heavy.

Delilah is probably a realistic 8ft maybe 9... shes so hard to measure, i try to get pictures of her to compare or measure but never turns out right or the little brat wont sit still :P i used to measure her sheds but i quickly learned how stretched out and off those are. i can hold her over my head at 8ft and she is still comfortably wrapped around my hand and still on the floor.

but yea i know what you mean about climbing. she will regularly climb up the wall and onto my clothes hangers or up door frames... its crazy how active and height seeking they can be.

well i went out exploring this past weekend and got some new logs and changed the fit of some old ones. the camera dosnt make it look as cool but it looks real good in person.

any tips on getting the half logged(that is hollow on the back) to stick to the back wall? i was thinking screws from outside to the log but worry about them going to far and sticking out or cracking the log. she quickly pulled it down off the back wall so i removed it for now. gonna try filling it with "great stuff" pond edition and some smaller screws into the foam???? idk

I would drill a whole into the wood and the cage and use a bolt to secure it. You can counter sink the bolt so it doesn't stick out by using a drill bit slightly larger than the bolt head so you can still get a socket on it and only go a tad deeper than the thickness of the bolt head.
