Snake Cage Melbourne
Snake Cage Melbourne. If you are in search of a Snake Cage, this is the right place for you. Reptile Life is located at Ferntree Gully, Hoppers Crossing and Norlane, Geelong, where you can find a vast range of Snake Cages.
Snake cages are generally of 2 types, and one is made from Melamine Timber, while the other type is made of Glass. We will explain further down the page how these two types of snake enclosures differ from each other.
Below is a video featuring the different types of snake cages we have for sale.
Glass and Wooden Snake Cages
Wood Melamine snake cages require extra care in cleaning, especially with the use of water, as it will tend to seep into the timber and cause the wood to swell and eventually damage the cage. If you purchase this type of cage for your pet snakes, you should apply a small amount of silicone along the timber joins to stop water from getting into the gaps and swelling the wood.
On the other hand, GLASS snake cages tend to last longer and are easier to clean, and GLASS snake enclosures are better suited for semi-aquatic species.
WOODEN snake cages hold temperature much better than glass snake cages as heat dissipates much faster in glass than in wood. In terms of the price, glass and melamine cages are about the same.
Adequate ventilation is an essential requirement in maintaining a snake cage. The environment that housed your snakes must be free from condensation build-up. A humid climate for most desert-dwelling snakes and lizards will cause respiratory diseases.
Both the Melamine Wooden Cages and the Glass Cages we sell at our store have the recommended level of ventilation which allows sufficient airflow. No matter what type of snake cages you choose, you will need to consider the amount of lighting and heating according to the reptile you are keeping.
Check out the video below of some of our range of heating and lighting options.

Snake/Python Care Sheets
Learn how to take care of your snakes/pythons by downloading these care sheets.
Do Snakes/Pythons Need UV Light?
For many years reptile keepers have been under the assumption that they do not require Ultra Violet Light. UV light regulates the production of Vitamin D3, which allows pythons/snakes to absorb and metabolise calcium properly.
Most keepers have kept their animals without UV for many years without any issue as they believe that the python will get enough calcium from the rats and mice they are feeding. Correct!
There is enough calcium in their food, but does their body absorb the calcium into their system well enough without the UV Light? It is where you, as a snake keeper, need to decide as there is so much conflicting information.
In summary, your snake or python will benefit from UV light.
Snake Hide Logs and Caves
Your snake cage must be ‘Stress-Free’ to maintain optimum health. In the wild, snakes spend a lot of their time hiding in holes or under rocks and logs, and they do this to protect themselves from other predators, and it’s an instinct.
Even in captivity, a pet snake will have this same instinct to hide under different objects. To support this natural behaviour you must offer some hiding spots inside the snake cage.
Our reptile department at Reptile Life has a great range of reptile hide logs and caves to choose from.
