They're a lot of fun to make and with a bit of creativity, you can make some amazing looking hides for your animals.
Please feel free to share some tips that you have used on your own hides!
May I share this on my site?

Here's my ball python zeus, (male snake). slithering up on top of his new found hide kind of exploring it......

And here he is nice and happy inside his new boob hide, (thats my boy!!!) he seems to like it in there, but it is crumbly, and might cave in on him,
