This Wood Good?
I saw these wood bird perches at Petco the other day... and was wondering if anyone knows what sort of wood it is, and if its safe for a bp enclosure. Nowhere on the label, or product listing online, does it show what kind of wood it is. Seems like they might be nice for a young bp, or the kingsnake enclosure.
Here's the Petco link to the product:

Looks like this:
0.1 Mexican Black Kingsnake (Tynee)
0.1 BEL Ball (Luna)
0.1 Sunglow Boa (Pippi Longsnake)
0.1 Woma Python (Uma)
WANT LIST

General rule is if it's made out of hardwood, it's reptile safe. The description says it's made from birch wood. You're in the clear.

I might be blind but I read that over a couple times. Says Hard wood, and Bird Perch. Never saw the word Birch Wood. Maybe the phone doesn't show a full description.

The You & Me All Natural Hardwood Bird Perch easily attaches to your pet's habitat wire thanks to its washer and wingnut kit. You can help stimulate and exercise your bird's feet and legs by partnering it with other perch sizes and styles.

Apparently it's hardwood

Oops. That's what I get for speed reading lol. Totally thought it said 'birch' and not 'bird'.

What I've run into is that wood products always get pooed on over the years and you almost always toss them so when I do grab sticks, I usually end up just finding some hardwood branches, stripping the bark, and then baking them to sanitize. That's just me though. Pine and softwoods have sap....so that's a no-no
