Safe materials for snake decoration

[Homebody]

Just my suggestion- baskets are much easier to work with than coating wood shelves that a snake may not be comfortable with- plus, if you attach a basket with wire (not permanently glued in), you can remove & wash them if needed.

Oh, the BEST thing about baskets is they're cheap & available- if not in your cupboard from Easters past, look in thrift stores- they have TONS of them, cheap!

True that! I have experience with both wood platforms and baskets, and baskets are superior for slender bodied snakes like corns. Wood is comparatively difficult to work with and poly can take a long time (weeks) to off-gas. I recently traded out a wood platform in my enclosure for a twine net and it's a big improvement.
