Wood Pieces for Terrarium

I've gotten fake plants and things from Chewy, they are cheaper than the pet stores around here

I've also roamed around the crafts stores like Michaels and A.C. Moore (closed down here) too

I have found some really fantastic plants on Chewy! They've worked out really nicely so far in the 20L we are currently using!

Just be aware that most artificial plants are made cheaply in China & many have been found to be heavily contaminated with lead -this was published out of concern
not for pets but for people, notably children, because these fake plants are often used for table decor where they are touched & contaminants can be inhaled or ingested.
The lead probably comes from the mixed-metal wires used inside the stems, which can also be exposed (& are sharp!) when snakes climb around on these "plants", something else to keep in mind.

Thanks for the heads up......

I learned all about the wired plants, fortunately I learned the lesson not the snake, now I make sure to use plants that are meant to float,

and double check to make sure no wires are in the plants.

I use ones like this https://www.chewy.com/marineland-bam...iums/dp/133091

Great! I only mention because there have been many posts about ppl going to the nearest "Dollar Store" for fake plants for their snake enclosures.
