This unit weighs a total of 45 lbs. and is very solid!

These units will revolutionize the way you keep your herps. They will thank you for it! PLEASE READ ALL INFO BELOW BEFORE PURCHASING: Assembly required - Approx 30 min with a Phillips head screwdriver. Cages come flat packed. SEE ASSEMBLEY INSTRUCTIONS AT DIYCAGES WEBSITE. When screwed together the material will form a tight seal, but for extra tight seal on walls it is recommended to apply a bead of silicone to all the wall connections. To avoid damage to surfaces, please use a liner between cage and surface. Excess moisture may saturate panels of cage over time. PLEASE USE CAUTION WHEN HOOKING UP THE LIGHTING SYSTEM. Lights are prewired, but do not plug in until all installation is complete. Bulbs not included. CANNOT BE USED WITH CERAMIC HEAT EMITTERS UNLESS YOU PUT A HEAT INSULATOR BETWEEN THE LIGHT FIXTURE AND THE CEILING!!! CLOSED CELL PVC FOAM HAS NATURAL TEXTURE, LITTLE DENTS, SCUFFS, ETC... No two panels are alike. These are not damaged. It just adds to the cool look of the cages once assembled. CAGE DIMENSIONS ARE 48" WIDE X 24" HIGH X 24"DEEP COLOR - BLACK OUTSIDE, WHITE INSIDE. Decorations and bulbs not included. Picture is of a freshly set up enclosure. Review: A really in depth review - This is going to be a long review so strap in I'll start with a regular pro con list Pros - it holds heat super well for a bearded dragon you'd probably only need a 75 watt basking lamp (depending on the brand). About 12 inches from the bulb is about 110 degrees -holds humidity incredibly well rarely have to mist -price is good compared to competition like vision - looks cool -super light -seems sturdy -relatively easy to assemble. -easy to access animals and clean Cons -the locks never really attach well for me -first cage came without instructions and the websites instructions aren't as good as the one on paper -the plastic wrap is a pain to get off sometimes Actual review I have two (going to get a third) for a boa constrictor imperator and for my adult corn snake. First package came absolutely destroyed (cage was fine but the USB fixture was bent) didn't blame manufacturer figured it was the delivery company. When you open this up you will get styrofoam everywhere so have a vacuum ready lol. Originally had a 75w intense basking bulb in the cage. Temperatures were way too high for my corn snake. Cool side was still in the high 80's, 12 inches below the light was about 110, to the left or right of the bulb but still the warm side was mid-high 90's. Perfect for a bearded dragon not so much for a corn snake. 50w bulb works much better for him. (Please note outside temperature will have a huge impact on this). Got a second one for my new boa. This shipment faired much better. Stacked it on top of the first one. I plan on getting a third to stack on top of that one. Snakes like to climb the temperature probes so the hooks you use to hold the wires will get torn out. The cages are easy to access and clean. Holds humidity almost stupidly well. The last few days it started getting warm. Had to get a window ac because the room was getting to 88 degrees from the sun beating into the room causing the cages to get into the 110-120 range. This isn't a result of the cages design but rather to show how outside air has an impact. I have a heat mat in the boa's cage with a thermostat. Someone complained about the cost of the materials to make it is cheaper than this. Which yeah it is but that's how every product is. A company isn't going to sell you something for the cost of materials. This is actually a good value Someone else complained about it not getting warm enough. Which I have no idea how he has that issue. I could probably do a 25w bulb and the temps would be fine for my corn snake. So I dont know what his issue was. Take a look at the pictures (also I need more wood for my snakes to climb on and chill on) Review: More than expected! - EDIT: After 18 months the 18" light ballast quit working, thus I deducted a star. I reached out to the company but received no response. Maybe I was just unlucky enough to have a bad unit, but DIY Cages should've responded. I purchased another light from them ($48) so we'll see if it was a fluke. Other than this issue, the cage is great. After reading every review for the Critter Condo I decided to buy it. I decided to use black silicone on each edge before screwing the panels together to add more strength to the joints. I did not add silicone to the top because I wanted to be able to remove it in case I needed better access to the lighting. Overall I'm very impressed at the sturdiness of the unit once it's fully assembled, and it's SUPER LIGHT! So light that it's very noticeable when compared to the old 50gal glass tank. The only issue I'm having is too much heat retention. I had to remove the 150w basking bulb as the temperature went over 110* after 2hrs. Now there's a 100w bulb in and the hot side is now a steady 104*. With that said, I don't know what the one review was doing wrong when they said it didn't hold heat in. I broke the cool side thermometer on the old tank when trying to remove it and didn't get home from the store with the new one on time (light timer shut lights off). We shall see what the cool side temp is tomorrow! I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking to upgrade their enclosure, especially for a Bearded Dragon. ***UPDATE*** Switching to the 100w basking bulb did reduce the temperature on both sides a bit,96-warm side, 90-cool side compared to 112/94. Still not where I'd like the difference so I'm going to try a 75w bulb. My last ditch effort is going to be adding a low rpm fan on the cool side blowing down or add a larger vent to that side. I'm still impressed by this enclosure with no regrets for the purchase. ## Features - Well Insulated.

The PVC material the cage is made from is roughly 1/2" thick (I didn't measure it, but that's close). So double that for the bottom and the top pieces, inner dimension is very close to 23." **Q: What material could be used as the "heat insulator" if i use a che or can a hole be drilled to let out the excess heat? also can a uth be utilized?** A: We are unable to recommend materials but any heat insulator will do. You are trying to make sure the roof of the enclosure does not heat up enough for the fixture to fall off into the tank. CHE heat in a different way than regular bulbs and the fixture gets very hot. As for under tank heaters, we have seen no issues with using those or radiant heat panels. Customer support **Q: What heat insulator can I use do that I can use ceramic heat emitter in it** A: You can’t run an emitter in this enclosure ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A really in depth review *by T***N on April 10, 2020* This is going to be a long review so strap in I'll start with a regular pro con list Pros - it holds heat super well for a bearded dragon you'd probably only need a 75 watt basking lamp (depending on the brand).

I was able to figure it out, but it was a little frustrating, there were plenty of times I could have really messed it up, and there are still a couple tiny screws I don't know what they're for. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/141198931-reptile-cage-48x24x24-bearded-dragon-cage-lizards-cages-snake-cage](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/141198931-reptile-cage-48x24x24-bearded-dragon-cage-lizards-cages-snake-cage) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-09-18*
