Trying to get a good site to buy hides from. I really like the rectangle shaped black ones I see a lot of people using. Anyone have a site to buy them from??

I bet, with all those little fibers. My new ones should be here by Monday, Tuesday next week at the latest!!! I am excited to have 2 identical hides, I have been using a country crock macaroni bowl for the other hide lol. While it does work, its kind of tacky looking and not heavy enough sometimes to actually stay on top of them!!

Re: Hides
what ever works for them. now i stopped using hides since the rack they are in is covered on both side and the back so for them it's dark in their tubs

Nice, wish I could come across something like that!!!!
But yes, 4 more snakes AND thy will be proven breeders, so babies as well :)
EDIT: Only 4 more snakes incase I come across a couple I want to keep for breeding when they hatch and need a little more room. But once I get it up and running, imma buy like 6 more adult racks and a few more baby racks lol

Re: Hides
i barely thought about using it since it's probably the same thickness as pvc.
thats good im going to stat off small with a couple of snakes just to get breeding experience then move on to more snakes

Re: Hides
this is the stuff i was talking about it's 1/2 inch thick laminated on both sides. this is just the plain side the other side looks like wood floor planks.
