Thank you for all your replys. I have always believed that any animal needs room for exercise and an environment that stimulates them so they are not bored. All this can be done with glass not just wood and plastic. It just bothers me that newbies get into the hobbie to enjoy their new pets and well meaning people tell them they need to keep them in a habitat were they can't even view them. I respect all of you and i'm glad I found this website. jack
