mesh enclosures

well i simply tie the 2 zippers together with a small wire or a string. I have never had an escape (hope this doesnt jinx me lol) but i would worry about housing a lizard due to its claws.

My big concern would be those poop smearing garter snake antics.

That would depend on the species of course! I think these mesh things got started when chameleons were popular. People couldn't figure out why they wouldn't do well. Turns out they need open air (mesh) enclosures, yet a mist or fog machine to keep things damp.

lol that they do seem to enjoy, but the enclosure has a rubber liner in the bottom and it comes up about 5" all around; easy to remove and easy to clean. In case you're wondering now, the snakes cannot get under this liner lol

well he said iguana so even though I said lizard i was referring to them, I don't know a lot about them but the ones ive seen have sharp claws, wouldn't want them to try to climb and end up tangled in the mesh. I may be wrong about this, like i said i don't know a lot about these guys, so feel free to correct me; new info is always welcome
