Reptile Hides is a very nice addition to a reptile enclosure. They give the illusion of the animal outside and can add interest to your show. They do require quite a bit of work though. You will also need to have a substrate of some sort to put over the side to keep it clean and healthy. It can be a lot of work but well worth it.
Reptile Hides come in a wide variety of shapes, sizes and colors. A very large array of hides for almost any particular theme. A good assortment of full and partial hides for both small lizards and even amphibians. Some of the best Reptile Hides are made from all natural materials such as real lizard skin, alligator skin, crocodile or ostrich skin as well as resin hides.
These types of hides are usually made to look like rocks, wood, ceramic tiles or stones. They are a great way to make a small enclosure appear to be much larger than it is. You can get some really beautiful Reptile Hides that can be painted to match your decor or landscaping. There are many reptile enclosures that use artificial hides to give the illusion of the hide being part of the habitat. The biggest advantage of these artificial hides is that they are very inexpensive and easy to care for.
Reptile hides can be used to prevent the loss of your snakes. If your snakes don’t have access to the hide, they will seek out other hiding places. Snakes can suffer from chronic stress and can do just about anything to get their mind off their problems. Sometimes it takes a long time for them to run away. Reptiles can suffer from the same conditions and this is when they seek out the small reptiles that live in the small rocks or logs that they hide in.
Herp owners can purchase the hide at a local pet store or online. You can find several different types of hides as well as different sizes. Some people prefer a small hide that is a bit larger than their terrier. These people should take the time to read up about proper care of these types of hides before purchasing them. Proper care means keeping the terrarium and the hiding places clean. It also means providing an ideal environment for your herp pets.
In order to care for your herp pets, you should provide a suitable environment for them. A good example is providing a large rock with a good hiding place. If the snake is stressed out, it may either curl up and die or try to get away from the herd owners. When a herp snake dies or becomes stressed out, they usually fall into a den, similar to a hole in the ground. This is the best environment for the herp to survive.
Reptile hides can either come in natural or synthetic materials. Synthetic hides tend to be easier to maintain, but you must still make sure to remove any decaying matter or algae on a regular basis. Natural reptile hides can be cleaned weekly if you live in a milder climate and it’s okay to have it cleaned monthly in the case of a cold climate. The artificial hides tend to require less maintenance. However, if you have a snake that has been in chronic stress, you should consider putting it into a tank of fresh water and slowly acclimating it to the new environment.
Many herp owners will find that keeping one hide is too much. It becomes too difficult to manage different hide locations on a consistent basis. So if you do not have a large terrarium to accommodate one hide, you can buy several small hides instead. The reason for this is that you can then spread out the area of each different hide by placing small terrariums at the appropriate distance apart. In this way, you get the advantage of having one large hide and a variety of smaller ones.
