Read on if you can snap up a great deal in Chicago!  (Dollars and
cents are addressed at the end of the message.)

This cage is a real piece of work!  ...perfect for a large herp! 
First, the cage itself is a NEODESHA PLASTICS 72" model.  It includes
SEVERAL VENTS, a 72" LIGHT HOOD FOR TWO 72" "sun" BULBS, a easy-clean
WATER DISH that will not spill, and 2 GIGANTIC STERILE LOGS any
constrictor would kill to slither around!.  The cage is also
complemented by a high-wattage INFRARED BASKING LIGHT AND DOME mounted
on the top of the cage's left side and a low-wattage, fully-sealed
HELIX CONTROLS INFRARED HEAT PANEL mounted under the right side of the
cage's roof.  The basking light and heat panel are controlled by 2
HELIX CONTROLS DBS-1000 PROPORTIONAL THERMOSTATS
http://www.helixcontrols.com/prod_dbs1000.htm).  These items are all
top-notch.  (Heck, the thermostats even provide power-failure
protection!)

The cage is ALREADY DRILLED (with rubber grommets perfectly fitted) to
allow the infrared heat panel's power cord and the two Helix Controls
DBS-1000's temperature probes into the tank.  These are _ideally_
placed; the heat panel's power cord is _flushly_ routed a short
distance to the back of the cage.  ...real nice looking (for
perfectionists out there)!  The temperature probes drop in through the
cage's ceiling, and (using the respective grommet through which each
passes as a snug choke) they may be hung as high or low as necessary.

...BOTTOM LINE REGARDING THE CAGE: The right 2/3 is heated to a
background temperature of your choice (set on one DBS-1000), and the
left 1/3 is heated to another (basking) temp of your choice (set on
the other DBS-1000).  No herp could ask for more!

To whoever buys the cage, I WILL ALSO PROVIDE my BOOKS on boas and
pythons (including several classic volumes on reptile law and breeding
boas and pythons).  I will also include my 18" HEMOSTATS, a little
ORCHID BARK, a bit of MOSS, and Quatricide STERILIZING CLEANER.

I am LOCATED IN Chicago and will speak with anyone seriously
interested in this enclosure.  It is about the size of a phone booth,
so you had better take that into consideration up front.  (Anyone with
a pickup truck, van, or full-size SUV could grab it handily, but I
CANNOT SHIP OR DELIVER ANYTHING.)  ...BOTTOM LINE: $300 (or best
offer) TAKES EVERYTHING.  (Keep in mind that the cage and associated
equipment cost _well_ over $1,000 alone!)  Please reply by email to
bzEgan@hotmail.com.  Thanks!
