For my display cages....PVC Cages by Jim Scharphorn hands down. His cages look magnificent and won't break the bank for what you get!

For my racks. Animal Plastics. They've got a cool lip on each shelf of their racks that makes it much easier pulling out and inserting the tubs. They make some very nice cages as well.

A lot of folks swear by Habitat Systems. They're made from extruded hollow core PVC. I have three of these cages that I plan to offer for sale in upcoming months for the simple reason that I just prefer Jim's cages better, and for the money you just can't beat them.

Had some Boaphiles, will never get another. They're too thin and it takes half a year to get them! My multi-cage stack bowed badly. I also have personal issues with the owner Jeff Ronne as the last order I placed with him 9 weeks had passed (after jerking me around) before he confessed saying he hadn't even started on it. It was a sizeable order. I've heard countless complaints of this same nature with Boaphile cages. He did; however, refund my money immediately after I cancelled the order so kudos to him for that. The other problem I have with Jeff is that he's a legend in his own mind. If you talk to him for any kind of duration he's quick to tell you that every other cage manufacturer out there has stolen his ideas as he's invented everything made with 4 walls and a top to house reptiles. This is quite evident on his site. Get over yourself Jeff! Read here:

I know of many folks who are happy with Herpcages. They seem to fit the bill for a lot of folks.

Monster cages is another manufacturer I hear mixed reviews on.

Repti-racks......that's a touchy one. Having never owned one of their cages I can't offer my own personal opinion on their cages themselves, however, I will say that for every single person I know with one of their cages that like them, I know of 2 people that have had either complaints about their cages or the company. I will personally say that they've got a VERY shady 'Terms and Conditions' page, which is why I will never deal with them. The page is also riddled with all kinds of spelling and gramatical errors. I swear a third grader could do better. Comon'....if you plan to have a successful reputable online business, the least you can do is make sure the advertising and terms on your site is in check. At a bare minimum get spellcheck!

Please understand, as Auston stated, my observations were strictly opinion based. Marcial is very happy with his and with his many years of chondro experience, you definitely can put some weight behind his word. Especially considering his experience with just about every cage manufacture out there! Marcial, thanks for your contributions!

I don't want to come across as though I'm bashing Pro-line's products, and please, I apologize if taken that way because they do seem to make a fine product and even provide a strength test on their site. My gripe about acrylic doors and not having glass sliders is strictly my opinion and involves many herp cage manufacturers, not just Pro-line..

I have contacted Pro-line and they also do custom jobs. Very nice on the phone. Another thing I'll give the company credit for is that they stand behind their product as they will repair any cage body that is damaged from normal wear and tear and otherwise, FREE.OF CHARGE! You just have to pay shipping costs back to them to perform the service. How many companies offer this?!

Are Pro-line's the perfect cage? Who's to say. They are safer in that they are HDPE and don't have all the toxic properties of PVC, the company stands behind their products, and their prices seem to be pretty reasonable. Once again, I guess it's a matter of opinion. One thing is for sure though, Pro-line is definitely a heavy contender in the sea of herp cages out there.

Repair: Any cage damaged over time under normal use can be fixed. The yare pretty difficult to be damaged,but if it does happen we will fix cage bodies for free ( not doors/windows) You just pay shipping.

Doors/windows can also be fixed, not for free as these can be damaged per what is used to clean them. Proper cleaning info for acyrlic is available on the cage pages.
