    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

im in the market for a new cage 4x2x1 and ive been looking at the boamasters and animal plastics but dont know which is better i useually build my own but im tired of all the heavy cages so anyhelp would be great
 
No problem. I bought a ten lot years ago. Last nicely for like 18 months. Then went downhill quick.
 
AP gets my vote as well,their ability for custom work is second to one
They will build what you want without gouging for extra profit
 
with regard to the customer service issue, I will say that I personally, as well as many people I know, have complained that boamaster's customer service can be a little lacking (nothing major, just long delays between contact and orders taking considerably longer than promised) So if you do go the boamaster route, I would recommend buying something cash and carry at a reptile show, as opposed to ordering something to be built and shipped.

Extremely lacking. I did buy something from them at a show and was able to bring it home then, only to find parts were missing when I got the package home.

After pretty much nagging them over the course of several months they FINALLY sent out the missing parts.

The heating element is incredibly poor as well, it leaves the middle tubs nice and warm but the ones on either side are a good 4-6 degrees cooler...which just doesn't work when it comes to reptiles, especially hatchlings which is what I purchased mine for...



So yeah, I'd say go with animal plastics.
