    I Use the Zilla x-large cubbyholes as well and my girls LOVE them. I also use a few larges for the juvies and babies get the exo-terra caves which they love to squish into as tight as they can. For the extroverted youg 'uns I add carboard tubes out of the toilet paper roll in addition to the cave hide.




    Cheers,
    Kat

    I thought i was the only one using cardboard. They also love the paper towel rolls, chrismas paper wraping rolls, and newspaper rolls. My 4 ft BP chooses the rolls over her hides. She will also rock the whole tube with her tail, while most of her body is inside the tube.

    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO what a ride!"
