Where would be the best place to buy a snake enclosure or would it be better if I build on out if 16mm melamine ??
 
eBay always a good place to start depending on your locality. However not to hard to build and u can purpose build for a specific area.
 
I think I'm just going to build one it's for a childreni python
 
that's one sweet enclosure!!! I would love something like that. When l have the house to put it in..

just added to my bucket list

Agreed, IMO there alot better then these racks and boxes with a light that people call a enclosure going round. I'm getting that one in two weeks for my abino and this one for my first jungle i bought.

2.1m H x 1.2m W x 0.75m D and it cost $2190 + 100 for shipping because I'm in sydney.

lol true. As you can probably tell I'm not a fan of the box enclosures, you pay for what you get no point paying top dollar for a snake for it be chucked in a rack system. IMO there worth every cent.
 
So is that $2190 including what in the enclosure?
Our prices given include everything from lighting, heating, drainage, built in waterbowl, rock work, plants etc etc. Just plug in and use.

Aussie Pride what is your actual name? I didn't know I actually knew you...

The ones like that with the aquarium floor are more than $2190 though.
If you remove the aquarium and replace the artificial tree trunk with some big branches you will have our standard Large Custom Cabinet which is $2190

Hi Brad, ok, the standard Large Custom Cabinet is 2.1m H x 1.25m W x 0.7m D and costs, $2190.
Our standard enclosures come complete and fully stained and varnished with swinging front frameless glass doors and a false ceiling to hide all lights and heating. They feature artificial Rock wall and floor and inbuilt waterbowl featuring our "Easy Drain" system which involves the whole back wall and floor being sloped to run into the waterbowl which has a drain in the bottom of it that runs to a hose and valve that allows you to easily drain it for cleaning of the enclosure and waterbowl. They also come standard with all the artificial plants and branches, all lights and day heating. Our enclosures work on a concentrated warm basking spot leaving the rest of the enclosure cooler to replicate their real environment. The reptile will choose for themselves if they require a warmer or cooler part. This eliminates the need for thermostats, increases the reliability and reduces the cost of replacement bulbs as we utilise standard dichroic downlights. Waterfalls are an optional extra, but humidity effects on your reptile do need to be considered before choosing this.
Then to get the one in the video you add the following:
Artificial Tree Trunk.............................................$510
Aquarium option 45cm deep includes waterfall..................$350
Aquarium upgrade ( double pumps and filters and 60cm deep)...$190
LED Upgrade ( changes all the bulbs not used for heating to LED's)...$190
V-Cell by Virides active ventilation and air filter.........$110
Underwater lighting..............................................$185

Ends up $3725...we round it down to $3500 for the lot or you can just remove the options you don't want

definately hits the bucket list. How hard is it to clean out and whats the humidity like?

These explain it better than me.....wait a minute ...it is me!!!

Oh and humidity is fine , we put in lots of ventilation, and you can opt for the Vcell which is fan driven
