    Re: Do you use a hide in a rack system?

    i use one hide in each tub. sometimes they use it, sometimes they dont. my shy female almost always uses it but my two males usually hang out of theirs.

    Re: Do you use a hide in a rack system?

    but do animal burrows in the wild touch them on all sides?

    I'd think not, they'd have to be big enough for several furries, wouldn't they?

    I would imagine that rodent burrows and termite mounds are pretty darn cozy!

    Smile Re: Do you use a hide in a rack system?

    Dont use hides in racks, I find that hides promote nippy snakes and they strike at anything that moves across the front of the hide!


    just my opinion and Im sure there are lots of other ways of thinking.
