    el-cheapo hides, for growing snakes?

    As it says,
    what are you folks using?

    i poked around my local walmart, and target the other day. but i really didnt know what to get. my snakes will be 100-200 grams. so what fits? where can i get it?

    my closest pet store has those little plastic hide boxes on cheap, but its like a 30-45 min drive away!! and they suck, so i dont want to give them my money, just so they can use it to mistreat more reptiles

    thanks

    the small round one is a flower pot bottom(50 cents)

    the white one is a utensil/silverware holder(2 bucks)

    drill 2 inch holes and you're set! all found at wally world.

    nah bro! not trying to make you look bad. "that's just how i roll" it also helps to already have all the tools(drill,holesaw,sandpaper).

    Re: el-cheapo hides, for growing snakes?

    I have been to the wal, the depot, and lowes looking for those flower pot bottoms and i can't find them, maybe i am just looking for a bigger one, i got a male about 4 feet and he won't fit under the one's i saw. so i guess the silverware drawer is the way to go!
