I have a milksnake about 4' long, and would be interested in knowing if anyone using this product, if they are happy with it, and what size would be best for my snake. I like the option of placing moss inside, and misting it while my snake is in shed mode...

Thanks for your help!

Dan

i have the smallest one for my baby corn snake. I LOVE IT. i have moss in it at all times. i spray it about once a week. when its in shed i spray it more often but the hut holds the humidity really well. any more questions just ask.

This is a nice display-quality product based on the age-old concept of a humidity box. If you look for this product online, you will see they offer a large size that costs about as much as a tank of gas. That is the one for a 4ft milk.

People will tell you that for less money you can use a cheap plastic storage box with the corner cut off the lid and filled with moss. And they are correct. For a display, the Zoo-Med product looks much nicer.

You can also soak the snake for just a few minutes once a week. They really hydrate that way.

Thanks, guys...

Mark, I will get the large 3 in 1 shelter for my milksnake. For the other hide, I have a rectangular glass water and lid, which is covered with pieces of natural cork bark, which will give the snake two more hide options.
