I AM THINKING ABOUT GETTING A REPTARIUM FOR MY 2 AND MAYBE TO BE 3 SUGGIES!!! ARE THERE SOME TYPE OF INSIDE CAGE SETS THAT I COULD GET TO PUT IN THE REPTARIUM? IS A REPARIUM SOMETHING THAT A SUGGIE WOULD NOT GET OUT OF OR ARE THEY JUST SOMETHING THAT SHOULD BE USED EXCLUSIVELY WHEN YOU ARE IN THE ROOM WITH THEM? I HAVE BEEN LOOKING AT THE 175 OR THE 260 GALLON TYPE. ANY INPUT WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.

The first thing I would do is get a 65 gallon travel rept. You would want to make sure that the gliders can not chew through it. This way you are not out of a ton of money. If they can't chew through it then you have a travel cage. The only difference between the 175 and the 260 is that the 260 is a taller. They are the same length wide and deep. You can use what ever cage sets you want.



This is my 100 gallon rept. You can just buy the mesh screen and custom create your frame.

This is the best place to get your repts from. She has glider and has fast shipping.

i also have the 260 gallon. I didn't build my own frame though i went ahead and got the one that comes with it. I don't think its to expensive...80 bucks for 6x6x3. if u got the same thing in wire it would be probably 300 or more. and they are machine washable. the only thing i found problems with is hanging stuff. you have to get creative but once you can figure out something to hang from the middle its not bad. My little guy did chew through his first one, but it lasted me 2 years. and i ended up just patching up the holes really easy. i only replaced it b/c my mom broke the zipper. i really like them.
An a helpful hint: to keep the bottom cleaner fold up a shower curtain (thick plastic) and wrap it around the bottom that way its just an easy sweep up of the food and a wipe down every morning. it keeps the smell down too b/c u don't have as much food stuck in the cage.

I've got reps I use for travel and hospital cages. I used to have 2-175's and 1-260. I used the rep gear (bought my from Sugar Monsters, Inc) to hang toys and pouches. I have some chewers now that can't go in the reps so they're packed away. They are nice though, like they said the biggest challenge is hanging toys.

lol, I would not have the first clue either Charlee! Luckily my husband can pretty much tackle any project. We are actually going to build Manny and Lola a new cage out of PVC pipe soon. That is a pretty huge enclsoure though!
