Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Best stackable cage?
I was looking at animal plastics, should i get the speciality cage, and add the UVB florescent light option? I don't get what the difference is between that and the normal florescent light fixture they have.
Do you know if they have a way for you to use it on the inside of the cage, or what the setup is?
Or are vision cages better? Animal plastic i think is 100 dollars more... Just wasn't sure which route to go. Or if there is another supplier I'm missing.

Bearded dragon
Critter condos best bang for your buck IMO all my cages are critter condos all 30 of them some are going on 4-5 years old and no issues except a little caulking in some bottom corners lifting no biggie cut it out and re-caulk 10 minutes. Ones I bought have all light fixtures ready to go. Just pop your bulbs in plug in easy as that.

I did end up going with crittercondoz. Their is a supplier in chicago IL. He is driving out to deliver them once finished. Depending on how these 2 cages go, i might buy a bunch of smaller ones for the offspring.

Yep the small ones are great too! 33"x16"x16" I use for holdbacks large juveniles-sub adults and 30"x12"x12" I use them for hatchlings.

I was thinking about getting back into breeding bearded dragon. And buying some of these cages in bulk depending on how much i like these. So how many hatchlings do you keep in the 30x12z12?

Critter condos
I start off with 10-12 in the small 30x12x12 at 4 weeks old they are down to 3-4 holdbacks in each small cage the rest are wholesaled off. They work good stacked as far as electric bill. I use a 40 watt on bottom cage and 25 on up and can even go lower watt in a warm room. When I was usings plastic bins I was using minimum 50 watt spot for each bin.

Thanks for the info, do you just feed them like 5 times a day to keep low on the nip tails?

3 times a day I still get some nips IMO it all depends on the clutch some are nippers some are not. My friends at livingstons lizard lounge seem to have hardly ant nips in they're clutches and they use the small condos for the hatchlings imo well fed and thinning out the more aggressive and dominant eaters to smaller numbers per cage = less nips.
