    Those enclosures are exactly what I'd love to have for all my pets. My girlfriend has already accepted the reptiles will live better than us once we buy our house.

      I agree.
      I can't STAND people like Brian Barczyk who keeps THOUSANDS of animals in shoe boxes so that his bottom line gets bigger at the expense of the poor animal.
      So many people see this & follow suit & next thing you know people keep reptiles in rack systems for no good reason turn they point to Brian Barczyk as it being ok cause he does it.
      My rat snake when I added a branch into his cage climbs on it non-stop. My False Water Cobra swims in his water constantly.
      To think people like Brian Barczyk just place them into a box & forgets about them until they eat. Total darkness. Zero stimulation. People NEED to call this TRAGEDY BULLSHIT out!
