    Hatchling hide size?
    Hi guys!
    I'm new to the forum. (Well, I've been creeping quietly for a while)
    I'm getting a hatchling spider ball python later this fall! :)

    Approximately what size hide is comfy for a hatchling ball?

    [I'm making them out of waterproof oven-bake clay, because it's fun and they look snazzy]

    I just don't want to make it way too big or way too small. Though I suppose I could always pack it with moss or something if it was too big.

    And how big should the entrance be for a little hatchling head?

    Thanks!

    You want the hide to be snug, they love to feel secure and a nice small hide will do the trick.

    Reptile basics small size, (you could use one as a mold even)

    x3 to the RBI hides. My snakes like the beds (hides) and condo (racks) that RBI makes!:gj:

    Thank you!
    I'll use the dimensions for the mini-hide then, I guess?
