Nice job. That would be an awesome cage for a chondro or ETB, but it seems like overkill for a BP since it won't take advantage of all that vertical space. How do you heat it?

Well done. It's very attractive and well built.

The reason that I made it so tall is I plan to get an Emerald. Eventually I will put logs and vines in it.

Right now I have a heating pad under the hiding rock.

For now...the whole back comes off. I have sliders under the feet , so I pull it out and open the back. But I am already tired of moving it out every time I want to open it, so I was thinking of putting sliding glass doors on the front, unless someone has a better idea.

That cage would rock for my arboreals! What did it set you back to build and do you have any written plans for it?

It cost me about $550 for all the materials. I used Poplar for the wood, which was pretty expensive and the 1/4" glass alone was about $100.00. I didn't write out any plans for it...just made it up as I went along.
