Hey guys,
I know that this is definately not Australian geckos but, it is a caging system custom built by my friend Patrick Papara at www.pmpreptiles.com for housing a few species of Strophurus. I definately wanted to show this baby off! As you can see I didnt even have it set in place before I wanted to start taking pictures of it. The door system is the most awesome part with the half moon cut sliding door system which makes it way hard to get a gecko caught in the action of it. Great thinking Pat!
Disregard the crappy tape job that I did covering up the heat cable that came installed. I just want to get more even surface area out of my heat cables so I use aluminum a/c tape to absorb and transfer the heat.
These caging systems are great!! I presently am using a large 3 chambered arboreal style cage system that was special built by Pat for my Saltuarius wyberba as well as this new caging sytsem he just built for a few of my Strophurus. I will follow up with photos taken after I get the cages all set up and the geckos in their new homes.

Enjoy,

Here are the photos of the pair of Strophurus intermedius that I just set up in this new caging system. I still have a pair of Strophurus taenicauda to put in the the other 2 cages on the left hand side.
Hope that you enjoy!

Wow, very pro looking Clark! Is the lamp just going to be placed on top of the mesh?

Thanks guys for posting. I was beginning to think that I was the only one that found this cage to be nothing less that amazing.
Justin, I have not talked with you in years. How are you?? Yes I am just going to have (2) 18 inch 5.0 UVB flourescents that stretch the top of this cage system.
Oliver, I really like the doors of this cage system. They have to be very precise. So precise in fact that I dont think there is even a 1% chance that a geckos toe could get caught in this door slide system. He has been working on ideas for a custom rack for Strophurus for me for some time now and I think that soon he may have it worked out as well.
Your friends,
