Glad to know they're happy without them!

Oh yeah, they do fine without hides if you have them in a rack system. Like I said, none of my adults or subadults have hides. I'm thinking maybe 6 out of my 30+ bps have hides. Some of them curl up under the newspaper and use that as a hide, others just curl up near the back of the tub and call it good.

I usually give my subadults hides because they are in big 28qt tubs so I offer them a little extra security. Most don't need them, though.

My big girls who don't have hides just use the newspaper. Most of the time they hide under there.
