Are your enclosures glass/screen or solid sides?

Our clear panels ( which can be on front , sides etc ) are a super clear poly vinyl Our breeder habitats have white PVC solid wall panels 1/4-3/8" thick. Our we do all screen habitats upon request . Our framing is thicker than commonly found offering a stronger stable habitat .
Nice,do they come with different color like Black?what is the measurement on ur cage in the last pic?

that pictures is our rack system that houses our habitats . The bottom habitat in that pic is 23x11.75x23 but we can do anything any size
I bet u CAN for sure,even at the color of the rainbow!! I like the rolling cage with wheels,just in case you get bored with one room n move to another,easy access,and if u can drill some holes to allow the misting system or to align some branch n sticks on those panel,that will be even better.

Ones on this rack in picture are our gecko/frog habitats . Our chameleon habitats don't have a built in substrate bottom . You can use these for anything most just like the lower swing up screen door on bottom

We do understand both drainage and ventilation are important your only seeing a small part of different habitat pictures and options .
Screen can be anywhere and drain and substrate pans are available .
We also offer extra 2" side venting for those who like using solid walls but also can gain more venting .

Well know a question, your price is nice
. With the side venting there is no pricing? and Also no idea of mesh size? So lets say I wanted the gecko breeding racks the 8 cage strip. How would you vent that? In the back or in the door? Maybe both? I do very much like those for baby chams.Also is the bottom removable? and we are right back to is there a drain pan for that setup?
Scratch that I found the trays
, some pics of them somewhere would be nice though. Also no trays for the baby x8 cages? I am interested in the baby setups myself.Also one thing I may mention, not to offend. I like your pricing on some things, others its a tad high. Here is the thing, your cages look alot like DS breeders cages, and your prices with the stuff that DS's come with are actually higher. So what sets you apart? Especially seeing how DS is tried and true and been around.
For instance, your 22x22x47, with a drainage tray is 250, however a DS breeder cage similar sized with a drain pan and dragon ledges is the same price. So for yours I would have to buy the cage and then get the ledges from DS raising your price to 300.

You have to realize not to just base on price and see what it is you get for the price ours are so much different in sense we don't use screen frame as side walls We use actual walls.
1 - our side walls are 1/4-3/8" thick depending on cage type and size giving a more steardier habitat allowing us to design anything .
2 - our frames are white ( costs tad more ) plus their not common frames we use their commercial and thicker walled frame ( Stronger ) their not roll formed like 99% other use which is cheaper .
3- our floors are thicker 1/4-3/8"
4 - our trays and drain pans are thicker 1/4-3/8"
5- we use real nickel plated latches
6 - We ship many smaller sizes assembled saving assembly time
7 - our ship prices are lower
8 - our screening is True Black aluminum commercial grade
9 - Our habitats bottom and top support is not a screen frame its a solid PVC top and bottom that the screen frame sits on offering stronger support on both ends
10 - As mentioned we offer anything so please no assumptions we don't offer ledges cause we do just not shown yet.
u got a tough sophisticated customer like cyberlocc,which I bet his wife train him to shop that way,I hope u sell him a whole house cages,by the way he lives on the mountain ,so charge him delivery fee accordingly.

Okay so lets compare.
1- So are dragon strands, they are also PVC like yours (there is 2 types of cages, keeper and breeder, I am referring to breeder).
2 - Theres are black, I prefer black so how much less would black be then? Dragonstrand does not use cheap frames either, They are as of right now the No 1 chameleon cage company. But from your designs looks they finally have some competition
.3 - again DS is the same
4 - Not sure how thick there Drain pans are never asked.
5 - not sure about that never asked.
6 - Never asked, and personally not interested in smaller sizes.
7 - yes they are, where I live your shipping is 30 theres is 40.
8 - So is DS's
9 - Not really sure where you are going with this, how is the top a solid PVC? And does this mean the floor is not removable? The floor being removable is a plus.
10 - Okay thats cool that you will also sell ledges, That wasn't really my point.
My point with the ledges is I have a DS and a RFH in carts right now, the Dragonstrand setup shipped is 270, yours is 280 (your cage is slightly deeper) they come with ledges yours does not. They are backed by years of selling and earning a reputation you are not, they are forum sponsors you are not.
I am not trying to be a negative nancy, just giving you my perspective. A few things that would help would be lowering prices, (remember they do not need to compete with you, you need to compete with them). And/Or Making a comparison video, showing where yours excels and theirs fails.
They are very similar cages with the same pricing (yours is actually more), so in that comparison most consumers will go with the tried and true.
Another big help, for your company and rep would be to become a forum sponsor. This post will likely end up deleted because you are not just FYI. I will keep an eye on you guys for when I do my baby racks here in the next few months
. Those are very well priced depending on the drainage trays for them. I would personally really like to see a video for compare .Please dont take any of this as being mean or trying to down you. I am looking into spending a whole lot of money on caging and want to make sure I make the correct decisions. If I were buying 1 and that was it it would be different. However I am preparing and room and over the next 6 months a year plan to be doing 8-10 adult cages, 6-8 juvi cages and 24+ baby cages. So that is alot of $$$ and I want to make sure I make the correct choice of who to go with.
I am very glad I seen this post though, as I am redoing the room throughout right now then after will be jumping in to a few cages at a time. I was dead set on Dragonstrand breeders, now that I have seen yours I am intrigued and now have a tough decision to make
. I may just buy 1 from each of you and make my choice then.
