Where are all of the good cage furniture pieces?
I have this wonderful platic piece of cage furniture that is the perfect size for my 42" corn snake. It looks like a tree stump, and has a built in water dish. Since I bought it years ago, I've not seen anything like it.
I also have a tiny little cave looking thing that was great for baby snakes. All it says on the bottom is M RF, USA Not sure if the two pieces are related, but they were bought from the same place around the same time.
My milksnake is still pretty small, and he's actually using a homemade hide that is a kiln fired clay piece from when I was a kid. But eventually he's going to need something bigger.
I like to think of each terrarium as a piece of art, and I like the natural appearance that many of today's herp supplies offer. But most of the hides are fake caves with multiple openings and are not very shallow, which my milk and corsn love. Of course, there is an abundance of half logs, which offer not much security for my snakes. I've resorted to stuffing fake plants on either side of the logs to help, but even still that isn't the best.
Am I the only one who thinks the diversity of accessories out there is limited, and most of the ones available suck? For example, Michael's craft store has a better selection of fake plants than any of the local pet stores (big box or otherwise).
Is there a secret store that carries more natural looking things than mass produced insecure rock caves and half logs?
