I designed this cage and started selling it almost 20 years ago and there are many happy Sugar Gliders that have called it home for many years. The beauty of a PVC coated wire cage is that the wire never really wears out. It can be 5-10 years old and the wire will still clean up like almot new when pressure washed.
This cage is a great cage for starting out with your Sugar Glider pair. It is the cage that I sell at all of our shows as the standard cage. (I offer some others as upgrades).
As you will see as you go through the cages that we offer, you can upgrade to a much larger cage as your gliders get older. However, we do suggest that you start with this cage or one that is not too much larger. The reason is that it is much easier to bond with your gliders if they are in a more intimate cage. They will be easier to pick up on the first few days when they usually want to avoid you. If they try to avoid your hand in a smaller cage you can still reach them. If you start in a really large cage, it will be much harder to get them to come to you, and they can actually be unable to be reached.
This cage is 18”x18”x24” with an 8”x14” door and is made of 1”x1/2” PVC coated wire made in the USA. It has a U shaped mezzanine level up 9” from the floor level. Of course it has a sliding dropping pan. It is available in all black wire, or all green wire, or all red wire. It can also be ordered in black with green shelf and floor, or black with red shelf and floor.
This cage is designed to accept one of our Wodent Wheels. The door is large enough for it to fit through, and the wheel can be placed on the floor inside the mezzanine, or on the mezzanine, where you can secure the stand with electrical ties to make it rigid and more silent.
Add a stand to go with this cage. They are 24’ tall and are made of light gauge galvanized tubing and are powder coated in a glossy black finish.
This cage can be shipped by FedEx Ground.
In order to save on freight, this cage can be bought in a “knock down” version. The cage is preassembled to the maximum that we can, and still fold it so that it can fit in a flat box. The cost of the freight is less, but the price of the cage is the same. We provide a supply of the c-clips needed to finish the assembly process and a tool for applying the c-clips. Instructions are also included. Almost anyone can finish the assembly.
