I have seen people take terracotta pots, cut them in half lengthwise (from the mouth to the bottom) and then spray them with the texturizing paint that looks like stone. After it has had ample time to air out, I bet that would be a pretty cool realistic looking hide.

I have a medium one from Exo terra that looks nice,but the black plastic ones i get from Reptile basics are really easy to clean.

Thanks! I might give the pots a try. I will try to come up with a way to cut them without it shattering.
I believe the medium exoterras are what I have been using. I have a female ax that is now pushing the 4ft mark and can't hardly fit in there 
for a year and a half old, I think she is doing nicely 
believe its a emetics thing there. Thanks....
