Sorry about the late reply, I've only just found this thread.

I'm currently looking for lots of large vision cages for my big stuff.

They look great!

With regards to the DWA issue; many of you know who ViperKeeper is, but just in case you don't, he's a venomous snake specialist from the US. He deals and breeds for lots of zoos and other venomous keepers. He also has his own channel on YouTube, found HERE.

ViperKeeper uses what look like Visions for most of his venomous.

With regards to the ledge on the top of the viv. There are some videos on Viperkeeper's channel which show snakes up there. As has already been mentioned, there is no worry IF you pay attention to the fact that it is there and snakes CAN and WILL hide up there.

Coinsidently, if anyone knows of any Vision, Herptek or Rhino vivs going cheap/second-hand, could you let me know?

I had the exact same thought when me and Sami went. Cobra and rattlers that you could help yourslef too if you were foolish enough.

Not every secure for a shop environment no, while the private keeper is generally very careful most shop customers wouldn't think twice about not bumping into vivs etc.

Doesn't he use Herptek?

Default vision cages for dwa

i use visions in the shop and have had a few problems with the glass being lifted out and reptiles stolen but i dont think any one would be stupid enough to do it with venomous in .
to stop the glass being lifted out i have used 10mm corner plastic strips and riveted them to the viv on the one side so the glass cannot be lifted out .
i have also used the visions in the shop for venomous with very little problems
