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.

What do you guys think of these cages?
by the way I am new here and am looking for a custom bearded cage.I saw these cages online and seem to be priced good. What do you think.? If I dont go with a custom cage I am just going to go with a 48x18x18 aquarium.

The cage looks nice from the pictures, but I'd have to see one to be able to accurately evaluate it.
The only problem I see is the lexan door. Using it as a beardie cage, the door will get scratched up. I put an adult beardie in a empty snake cage once as a temporary measure while I built additional caging. It didn't take long before the 1/4" plexiglass door was so scratched it looked cloudy.
Lexan it tougher than plexiglass in respect to breakage, btu I don't know about scratch resistance. I've used both materials, but I've never subjected lexan to a bearded dragon's nails.
Every beardie cage I built was either large and open topped, or had 1/4" plate glass doors.

I have a few of those cages. I bought them (from the guy that builds them, not that ebay seller), and quickly decided that they did not suit my needs/purposes. If you have any interest in the 36x18x18 version, let me know.

They just weren't right for what I was keeping. Believe me - if they were crap, I would have just sent you a PM saying so. I did use one of them briefly, & had no problems

one more problem would be that the crickets would be able to crawl up the sides of the tank.

What about a layer of clear coat on the lexan, I don't know how that would work with animals, but I know it was a lifesaver of my Ttops.

Just to add information...There is the choice of using Lexan or Glass with these enclosures.

Just to add information...Crickets would not be able to escape, We use 1/8" Heavy Steel Gauge Hardware Cloth Mesh for the top.
