Arboreal cages

I am in the market for some arboreal cages, I have a pair of gtps and a few atbs. I am leaning towards the cages from constrictors northwest and the cages from pm herps which are basically barrs cages. Does anyone here have experience with either of these cages from these companies? What companies do yall use here? I really want to go with plastic cages but I'm having a tough time choosing.

Re: Arboreal cages

I use PVC cages and will soon get stacks of animalplastics caging. The cages you mentioned are also good.

They are all good, just pick any. In the end, we're just buying plastic boxes that all do the same.

Re: Arboreal cages

While I don't have Arboreal cages, I've purchased all of my cages (36x23x17 Carpet python cages) from Ed at Constrictors NW. Great guy who makes and sell excellent quality cages at reasonable prices. He uses all dovetail joints which allow them to slide together very easily and remain very secure. Each cage takes about 30-45 minutes to assemble, but the assembly process is very simple. That said, I believe that he's backed up a bit on his orders right now, but it's worth the wait IMHO.

Re: Arboreal cages

You could probably build them for a lot cheaper

Re: Arboreal cages

I've got arboreal cages from AP, Boaphile, and Vision and they all have held up great. Carpet in the AP, retics in the Boaphiles and a monitor in the Vision and I don't have any issues.

Re: Arboreal cages

I'm not gonna build them since I don't have access to sheets of PVC. I really think high humidity snakes would do a lot better in PVC cages. And I'm not very handy to begin with. I'm starting to lean towards the pm cages. I've heard good things about them.
