Can I put an Exo Terra screen enclosure outside?
I keep Naultinus genus geckos, and I am tired of building large, bulky, expensive outdoor enclosures, with treated wood and aluminium screen mesh. I would liek to look a a cheaper option that can still stand the outdoor climate, and an enclosure that can (like my current ones) be kept outside all year round.
I am looking at Exo Terra, Zilla, or Zoo Med screen enclosures, and i would liek to know what is most durable, and what can be kept outdoors all year round, just as my current ones do.. Everyone keeps these geckos outdoors all year round, and it is not an option to keep them indoors, so yeah.. What is the best enclosure?
Cheers

I know people have always had good experience with Reptariums, but they are no longer produced, so they are naturally more expensive and frequently previously used. Of the three brands that you are interested in, I would say that Zoo Med is the best. They consistently produce the highest grade of products in my opinion, although Exo-Terra is not bad, just more expensive for the quality of product that you get. The one thing that I like about Zilla cages is that it's not really a mesh so much as a full screen, but that's more important for heavier animals that could actually rip a screen or if you have a lot of heavy lighting and heating elements.
