    Re: Cold side

    Thanks for the hide pics...I still dont get how the snakes dont cut them selves on the plastic though?? This is how I had cut my finger when I was trying to make a hide the last time but I was cutting it out of the side of the container not the top... what did you use to cut through the top with? My snake is pretty large though I havent weighed her yet but prev. owner said shes eating sm-med. sized rats so im going to need a fairly large container if I was to make one. So I would be just removing the normal hide I would use on the hot side during blue phaseband put this humid hide there.. then once shed is done..put back the old hide I normally use right?

    Re: Cold side

    Good news I just noticed she was super active last night come to find out this morning there was something inside my cold hide...went to check and it was shed skin...unrolled it to check for eye caps..they were there, so it was a complete shed, plus a little gift of poop in the corner.

    I took here out put her in a bin cleaned the tank but then she just went back into the cold side again. The cold side hidd is sligjtly larger than the hot sidevhide so im hoping thats not why she wants to go there... but she doescseem hungry, my rat supplier is out till sometime this week... im hoping he gets dome in soon.. but happy she had a complete shed.

    I use a hole saw bit and sand the edges. Never had a snake cut itself.

    Re: Cold side

    Would a lighter work to soften and maybe mold edges? I wanna make one now.

    Might work to smooth the edges for sure as long as the plastic didnt melt too much and blacken
