    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....

I am selling a custom built solid oak snake enclosure. I have kept my male ball python in this enclosure for the past year. I recruited a friend of mine who is a professional cabinet maker to help me build this, so it looks very good, and is put together well. Most of my friends don't believe that it is not store bought, and it looks like a piece of furniture.

The cage has a plexiglass floor which allowed me to use flexwatt to heat it. I also installed a radiant heat panel from Reptile Basics on the ceiling of the cool side that keeps the ambient temperature right at 80 degrees. There is a hole drilled in the middle of the plexiglass floor to run thermostat and thermometer probes to keep things looking neat and finished.

Plexiglass is also installed 2" high along the inside walls to make clean-up a breeze. The entire cage (inside and out) was stained and then given 4 coats of marine grade polyurethane sealant.

Dimensions of cage are 30x12x16 (LxWxH)

All that you need to add is a thermostat or rheostat and your snake!

$300 b/o -- e-mail me to make offer or for inquiries [email protected]

I would prefer a local delivery/pick-up, but shipping could possibly be arranged (buyer to pay all shipping and handling).

** Stand and cage furnishings are not included. The cage has the same footprint as a 29g aquarium so an aquarium stand would work (that is actually what I am using in the picture). The flexwatt on the cool side is no longer there, as I replaced it with the heat panel.


Thanks for looking!!
