    Reptile basic hides

    Who uses them? I just got 2 of the small ones delivered and omg. They are SMALL. I got 2. One for each side. They make my other ones look huge. Didnt think a 20" bp could fit into it But he did

    So who uses em? They made my tub seem like it has alot more open room now

    Re: Reptile basic hides

    I only have the "Medium" size, all my BP use it at the moment. They are the perfect size for BPs in my opinion. Unless you have a bigger girl or a chubby male. Im gonna try out the "Large" soon. I did buy one "small" to see the size one time, but yea they are small, it gets outgrown too quick.

    Just to give you an Idea, My adult Axanthic Male fits perfectly into the "Medium" he is almost 1000g, but he looks thin. If it was a girl I would probably have to upgrade to the large.

    I wish they were heavier though... they get moved around too easy. This is the main reason why I havent tried the Large yet.

    Re: Reptile basic hides

    I currently have x-small, small, and medium. I never even used the x-small, and I think I only used the small for about a month. My male bp has been in the medium hide for almost a year.

    He is starting to outgrow the medium now -- he is about 1200g -- and I just received two large hides today. I am hoping these will be the last hides I need to buy (for this snake anyway )

    I have been very pleased with these hides. They clean up really easy -- I just give them a quick soak in the sink with some soap and water!

    Later,

    George

    Re: Reptile basic hides

    I have a size Large for my 1420g male BP. It's not quite as snug as it could be, but I was concerned that medium would be too small. However, he seems to enjoy the large just fine, uses it all the time. I like how light weight they are, my BP easily moves it around his tank to suit his temperature needs. Also very easy to clean.

    They're great hides! Easy to clean and the BPs seem to prefer them to a clear-ish plastic home-made hide.

    Re: Reptile basic hides

    I love them. Easy to clean and the light weight means that if they slip out of your fingers when picking them up they wont crush your snake. If the mediums are a little big then just put it one or two pieces of crumpled up news paper, a small tupperware bowl, or something like that to fill in some of the space until they grow into it.
