Just wanted to throw this out there. The cheapest hides I have found were FREE!!
I went to my local garden supply place which is about 1/2 mile from the house and asked about used plastic plant pots. They had literally a mountain of them in the back of the lot. The owner said to take all of them I wanted.
I flip them upside down, cut them to the height I want, cut an oval door in them, and slightly melt all the edges with a soldering iron to get rid of sharp edges. They can be gotten in various diameters for larger or smaller sub-adults and the height is adjustable by you.
Anyone else use these instead of the (expensive) factory made ones?
Have photos? Do they have holes for drainage in the bottom? Can your snake get stuck in the holes?
Great thinking about getting them. Just make sure is safe and clean really well. Pesticides' could effect the health of your snake and don't wash off easily.
