Does anybody have any tips on how to build a Neodesha style cage? I already have all the materials to build the cage but need to know which door styles are the best. The materials that I am using are plexiglass and wood. I also need help figuring out how to support the heat lamp. The heat lamp is 5.5" and any ideas on how to suspend it from the roof of the cage safely would help alot. I am thinking of using peggboard as the back of the cage instead of a solide wall to provide ventilation. Any Ideas would be a great help, thanks.

see my old monitor cage,built years ago, just adjust for your measurement needs:

Why, instead of peg board for ventilation at the back, don't u make all walls solid (I used bathroom white board available from any building store).
The top was wire with small holes, such as for rodent cages, which allowed ventilation. I would put the lamp outside the cage on the wire, that way lizards couldn't get to it and get burned.
The hanging flower pots u see were used to keep mealworms and other snacks for monitors available at all times, but the food creatures couldn;t get out and nibble on lizards.
The cage in picture is 4x4x2 feet.
