For Western reptile keepers (especially ball python/corn snake enthusiasts) who want a hide that looks like it belongs in the wild (not a pet store aisle) – this Handwoven Rattan Reptile Hide Box (12x10x9in) is the perfect habitat upgrade (just like the calm, natural scene in your photo!).
Snakes are wired to seek hidden, natural retreats – and this rattan hide checks every box for their comfort and your enclosure’s style:
-
Wild-Mimic Security: The handwoven rattan + leaf accents mimic the forest crevices/small dens snakes use in nature. Unlike plastic hides, it doesn’t retain odors – your ball python will gravitate to this because it feels familiar (critical for reducing stress in captive reptiles, per Western herpetology guidelines).
-
Flexible for Any Enclosure: Use the rope to hang it in vertical vivariums (popular for creating multi-level habitats) or set it on the floor – perfect for bioactive setups with live plants (a trend among Western reptile keepers who prioritize "natural" habitats).
Practicality meets reptile-specific needs:
-
Humidity & Light Balance: The woven gaps + side vents keep air circulating (so substrate stays mold-free) while keeping the interior dark – snakes avoid bright spaces, so this hide lets them rest without exposure.
-
Warmth for Tropical Snakes: The removable fleece liner insulates against cool glass/vivarium floors – essential for ball pythons (tropical species that need consistent belly warmth to digest food properly). Toss the liner in the washer to clean shed skin or substrate debris.
-
Stable & Safe: The sturdy rattan construction (no sharp edges) + weighted base (when used as a floor hide) mean no tipping when your snake slithers in/out – no risk of injury to active medium reptiles.
At 12x10x9in, it’s sized perfectly for medium snakes: roomy enough to curl fully (snakes feel secure when they can touch all hide surfaces) but compact enough to fit in 30–40 gallon vivariums. Plus, its natural rattan finish blends seamlessly with live plants, coconut substrate, or moss – turning your enclosure into a mini ecosystem (not just a "cage").
