Acrylic/Perspex/Glass Cages

Hello all, would anyone happen to know any contacts for the above mentioned styles of cages? The thing is, I think it'd be better to house my chin in such a cage as I've just gotten him and he seems to be gnawing on the bars of my current cage till now end, even trying to force the door open most of the time. Is this kind of behaviour normal when a chin is moved to a new home? Will it subside? The thing is, it's not a 'jumpy' chin, it's active and rather tame in that it pokes its head out when i place my hand in to change food/hay/litter pan. So, I'm not sure if it has already settled in or not..haha..all in all, I'm hoping this isn't a permanent issue.

How much would a normal acrylic/glass enclosure cost? Assuming there's no wood involved (for the acrylic kind). Also, what a good size to get and what kind or how many holes should it have? My chin is in nearly perpetual a/c so overheating won't be an issue.

Hmmm..Think my post is very convoluted, to make it clearer, what I'm looking to get is a pairing cage, followed by 2 sections of acrylic cages, meaning a 2 cell by 2 cell type enclosure.

One cell should be big enough to house 2 chins possibly?

Thanks for your help!

I suggest you use glass since he is a chewer. Acrylic looks ugly after a while when u see all their gnaw marks.

Maybe you can look for Ryan to do the cage for you? Think he is the person most people look for first when doing their cages. He is usually able to custom design cages, so you shld be able to get what you want. Cost varies on size and design, so can't give you a range.

Hope this helps
