    Hide!

    I was wondering if anyone can provide me with a recommendation for a hide for an adult BP.

    Re: Hide!

    I just use the little half-log huts. It doesn't really matter as long as it fits the BP snugly.

    Not a fan of the half log, neither are the majority of the people on here, they aren't tight enough for the balls to feel safe in, go with upside down flower pot dishes with a hole in the side or I personally like the Exo Terra reptile caves. Anything can be used, as long as it it a tight fit and, I'd recommend getting the same type of hide for cool and warm sides, that way your snake won't sacrifice warmth for safety. Good luck!

    These are all that I use, ESU (I believe now called Zilla) Creature Cubbyholes:


    Really easy to clean.

    I have some homemade hides from rubbermaid containers, but I plan on purchasing several of the hides that Jason suggested. They are PERFECT!

    I use the medium and large cubbyholes...the smalls were way too small for even my 300 gram babies, however they should be good for hatchlings!

    For an adult BP you can use the Creature Cubbyhole - extra large, this is where I get mines http://www.reptilesupply.com/ , or you can use a small kitty litter pan that you cn fin at Walmart works great for larger BP.

    I have mine pushed up against the side and turned to the right(one of them to the left, I guess) so that only one side is open and that it is not facing the tank front.
