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.

Matt,
Is your selection just limited to those three because of personal preference? From what I heard Moonstruck Exotics is building excellent cages at very competitive prices. Not only that, but I contacted for pricing and they replied that same day! There is no doubt I'm going to give them a try in the near future.
Regards.

I'll agree with Mickey....Boaphile would be my first choice.
Moonstruck's cages look nice as well but I have no personal experience with them. Of course, Vision and Neodesha also make good cages depending on what you're using them for.
Of the three you listed, I've seen Animals Plastic's racks only and they are really nice.
I own 2 arboreal type Barrs cages which work great for what I'm using them for.
Again, if I could afford to switch all my caging over to Boaphile I'd do it in a second!

Barrs
I own over 100 Barrs cages! I have some that are over 15 years old. I don't know what you plan on keeping in them but barrs cages rock.

Doesn't it really depend on whats going inside the cage though? I personally prefer Animal plastics, especially the 48"x24"x15" cage with a 30" x 12" wire vent on top for my dragon. AP also has a lot of new sizes so finding the perfect fit is pretty easy. I do wish I had gotten something other than a vision for my hognose, she always climbs up the front fascia of my vision cage, but is never able to climb down on her own.

Boaphile plastics would be my choice. 421D's are a great size as well.

My vote would go to Animal Plastics out of the three choices but to Boaphile overall.

Yeah it is limited to the one I have listed. There will be colonies of geckos, Redtails(thanks Clay) BP;s fat tails. Bophile is just to expensive..I figure there stuff is great but the price sucks...

I'm a bit confused. Here's a price comparison on 4' cages for your boas.
Barrs - Don't make them
Precision Cages - $150 + $36 shipping = $186.00
Animal Plastics - $255 (not including shipping)
Boaphile - $229 (shipping included
So the Boaphiles are $43 more than Precision and $26 less than Animal Plastics.
I'd recommend the Barrs cages for your geckos.
