What are the dimensions of it when flat packed in the box?


Are these stackable?

I was surprised at how sturdy it was. I spoke to the owner of a local herp shop about talk options for my new ball python and he didn't have many good things to say about the ones you put together. Clearly he hasnt experienced this one. The base is one solid piece, so no worries about leaking. The rest was actually really quick and easy to put together. It's packaged well, the structure seems very solid, overall nice design. Personally, I would recommend.

Very to build

I did build this with help from one person. Definitely sped up the already quick process. I really like the look it’s super clean and sharp. The screen lid opens

I did build this with help from one person. Definitely sped up the already quick process. I really like the look it’s super clean and sharp. The screen lid opens multiple different ways as well as an additional small opening at the top. I like that it locks and has a spare key as well. Great purchase other than it going on sale the week after I bought it lol.

Ball Python

We recently moved and something devastating happened. One of my scaly babies tanks broke. I was devasted. So I quickly went looking for a replacement and nothing!

We recently moved and something devastating happened. One of my scaly babies tanks broke. I was devasted. So I quickly went looking for a replacement and nothing! Then I found this one on Chewy and bought it for my 4ft male ball python. So far so good. it is so high quality. Putting this thing together did take me a bit as i am not very bright XD but if i as a idiot can figure it out and put it together all by myself i have full faith that anyone could. I have a uth and it works rather well with this tank. My bp hasn't been stressed and has taken to the tanks rather well.

This is exactly what we needed, and wanted. The cage is perfect for our ball python. It was very easy to put together, with only one small hiccup during the process, which was just a stubborn post that needed a bit of extra attention to settle into place properly. Very easy to put together, wonderful packaging, nothing was broken or chipped upon arrival.

Great Cage!

I have been wanting to upgrade my two ball pythons enclosures to front opening styles for awhile now and decided to try out this zilla quick build terrarium. Chewy

I have been wanting to upgrade my two ball pythons enclosures to front opening styles for awhile now and decided to try out this zilla quick build terrarium. Chewy did end up having them out of stock even though when I ordered they did show in stock but they made it right and gave me a discount code, was a bit frustrating initially but as always their customer service is top notch. Excellent size, I bought the 48x18 for each of them. Both of them came in good condition, not cracked or broken upon arrival. The boxes were a little torn but products themselves were in great condition. Instructions were easy to read and all parts were accounted for. Took us maybe 15-20 minutes to put the first one together and then 5 minutes for the second one!
