We finished building our first tegu cage! FINALLY!
Let me start off by saying we definitely underestimated this project! Building a 6'x6' cage is a lot harder than it looks (specially when you're a tegu noob). If you are looking at the blog picture and wondering, "what kind of tegu cage is that"? I don't blame you. We decided to build our tegu cages with PVC fencing material from a local PVC fence wholesaler. We got the idea from our friend Devin (@southfloridaherps on Instagram) who has his tegus in similar cages. Definitely not the cheapest way to build tegu cages but we liked that they would be easy to take apart in the event that we had to move to a bigger facility. We also like how the cage looks and that the tegus can't see outside. We spent about $350 per cage. Look forward to a youtube video on the cages once we have them all set up!
