    My BP has grown out of its extra large exo terra hides

    he has grown out of the largest ones they seem to do. the roughly 10x10x5 inch hide.
    can anyone suggest some new housing for my bp?
    whether i need to buy it or build it, all suggestions are welcome, although it needs to be very simple if im gonna build it.
    thanks for any advice.

    I made my owns hides from a pair of 2 gallon buckets from the dollar store. You could use 5 gallon buckets. I cut them with a reciprocating saw and them sanded them smooth and finally melted any sharp edges with a lighter. Turned out great. And I only spent $2.

    Re: My BP has grown out of its extra large exo terra hides

    I made my hides by getting opaque plastic containers or shallow tubs (used for dishwashing etc.) and turned them upside down and cut a hole in them, then sanded the cut edges so they are smooth.

    cat litter boxes! cut a section out of the side, melt the rough edges smooth with a lighter and flip it over.
