Hello all, just a quick question.
Im building a new vivarium (literally, from the glass up, gunna be quite a task) and i just had one question:
Where in the name of all that is holy do i find wood?
Im in Toronto, Ontario and im looking for large peices of terrarium-suitable wood, but im REALLY having no luck here.
Our local pet stores have basically nothing, the odd peice of sand blasted grapevine that can go for anything up to $40. If anyone knows of anywhere that i could get somthing suitable (I'm thinking like the wood they use in the black jungle tutorial), I will name my first born child after them if it works out.
(completly serious face, lol)
Thanx a lot.

Local reptile expos often have great wood at great prices (just check to see what vendors are going), and some people use ebay. I haven't used ebay but I've looked at it and there really is a ton of wood (under seraches for cypress wood, drift wood, cypress knee, ghost wood, etc). Good luck.
