    What do you use as Hides?
    I want to make some hides for my snakes... Preferably black plastic ones... So what do you guys use for hides, and then cut a hole out of with a soldering iron...? I know many people use tissue boxes, but i want my hides to be waterproof and washable...
    Thanks,
    Brandon

    I went to petco and bought some 5 dollar plastic dog dishes. They are really sturdy and dark. Not sure if you'll get your color preference though. Because they are a little thick soldering took about 5-10 minutes to get a good entryway cut, but it did make it easy to engrave her initial in the top of the doorway without poking through lol

    I use these.. they run .50-.75 ech and are dishwasher safe. They stack easy and are the best hide for Ball I have found.

    I use those and I really like how the doors are offset so the snake can feel more secure. They make really nice, dark, secure hiding spots :)

    I have made some plastic hides for my snakes, but others have ones that I bought like those rock formation hides at Petsmart. I took a plastic Glad container and flipped it over and cut a hole large enough for the snake to fit into. They work pretty well too.
