Suggestions?
Duncan has finally hit the final straw with me, naughty ham. He's temporarily in a 20 long as he's managed to chew out of everything, and *somehow* by some miracle, he got out yet again. Luckily both he and my carpet are safe, but I'm fed up with trying to capture him, and his 20 gallon is such a sad little space
What I need are suggestions, what's the heaviest duty cage available in the US? Preferably a large cage too, as I don't want him in anything under 650 sq in. Price doesn't matter, he just needs a good place. Remember though when suggesting, he has chewed through plexiglass, and is a very avid bar chewer. I need something that is 100% chew and escape proof for this little Houdini. Thanks all, Duncan and I really do need your suggestions!

Re: Suggestions?
I think glass may be the only option.
How about a 40 gallon long if they do them?
A custom made glass tank or joining two or more tanks together?

Re: Suggestions?
An easy solution would be a double Detolf with a raised lid.Other than making a custom aquarium or finding some source for a very expensive one to be made for you,this is just about the only way you'd get any tank style option over a square meter It'd be a very simple option,as long as you don't mind waiting for aquarium sealant to cure and making the lid(no extra DIY after that's done though!).

Re: Suggestions?
A double Detolf (joining two) could be done if Duncan needs more space.

Re: Suggestions?
That's what I figured I'd have to do! I think I'll shoot for the 40 gallon, it's much smaller than I'd like, but it's more secure than even a double or single detolf. I really wish I could offer him the space he deserves, but it's simply not possible with how he acts

Naughty Duncan!
I house Key Lime in a 40 gallon terrarium with a locking wire mesh lid (the one from All Living Things). I would recommend it for little escape artists- I'm not sure if they'd be able to chew through the plastic latches or not though. It's pricey but personally I think it's worth the money.
