best place to buy wire cages?

[Reids Rabbits]

This spring we are making our rabbitry a little bigger. We plan to buy wire modular cages. The few places I am looking at buying from are KWcages, Klubertanz, and bass cages.

I can't seem to find reviews. Would love to know if anyone uses cages from these companies and the pro's and con's.

Thanks

I like Bass and Klubertanz after that I usually compare shipping charges to see which one works out better.
I've never bought cages from KWcages before.

I'm not familiar with KWcages, but I have Bass cages. If you get those, get extra J-clips, and put them every two inches or so, to give the floor better support. I had to replace mine, but MSD did the spacing above and has had no trouble.

Klubertanz is good, and you might look into Woody's Wabbits. I haven't gotten their cages, but I have gotten other things from them.

reids your info does not have a state(your probably a spy or something lol!) just joking, but kw cages is out of california and I have to say the quality is very nice and the customer service was awesome! I went in there on a way to a camp get together and asked for a carrier cage they said that those things are pre-ordered ( I checked their website and they were not lying to me, big bold letters PRE-ORDER) any way, nice lady there said if i give her 20-30 minutes she would snap one together for me. They did it all with a smile on their face! Now bass has a great shipping policy, but read their site carefully as well. I ordered J feeders and the picture shows w/lid but you gotta pay extra, fine print!

Personally I prefer making my own. It seldom saves you enough money to be worth the trouble but I have limited space and want to use as much as possible and that usually means cages with odd dimensions that aren't sold commercially. I'm just finishing a growing out cage that is 49 inches by 31 inches and you won't find one like that in any catalogue.

When God made Hoodat, He smashed the mold!

When I was looking for hanging wire cages, Klubertanz had exactly what I needed and I've been happy with them. I might be remembering wrong, but Bass had more stackables then hanging, which is why I went with Klubertanz.

Thanks all. I'm from Canada so am currently looking into shipping costs from some of these places. I am leaning more towards the KWcges or klubertanz as there is more selection in the hanging cages. I'll definitely order extra j clips, thanks for the tip. I'll also make sure the floor is 14gauge and cage is galvanized after weld (some other tips I have been finding along the way).

Don't forget the J clip pliers, makes everything go much more smoothly
Another place to look at is Grandview Rabbitry, they're in ON so shipping may be a bit less and their prices are decent. There's also Great Northwest Cage Co, they're in the pacific northwest, so closer to Alberta.
Welcome from another Albertan BTW

No one has mentioned Sunny Meadows yet, but I know they are in canada. I don't have any of their cages but they seem to be nice, sound cages

 

[Reids Rabbits]

thanks. I took a look at all three sites.
I'm not too worried about shipping costs to Alberta from the states as I live close to Montana and can ship there. But thank you.
3mina - may I ask what kind of cages you use and where you bought?

I've got hanging cages and I bought them from the breeder I got my trio of Rex from. She's in Spruce Grove and I believe she picked them up at a show in Montana, she brings them up regularly to sell alongside her breeding stock. They're 24 x 30 babysaver
