 Question about cages

Ok...I’m making a cage for my iguanas and I want to put mesh around it and then get glass that I can remove in the summer and put back on in the winter. The only mesh that I can find is fiberglass. It’s actually insect screening and I want to know if that is ok for the cage. I don’t want to get anything that their toes can get stuck in or cut off. Please let me know what you think and if you have any ideas of anything else I can use. Thanks
Brianne

I wouldn’t go with chickenwite or the one you named...but I did hear that hardware cloth is okay in some cases. But any type of wire could be a means to injury.

Plastic coated wire seems to be the best but hardware cloth(its the one with little SQUARE holes) will work... inscet screening will be ripped apart within minutes as its like regular window screen.
