Why Provide a Hide?
Hides are an important part of a well-designed reptile enclosure. Providing sheltered areas gives the animal somewhere to retreat away from exposed areas of the enclosure.
For many reptiles, providing more than one hide also allows the animal to choose between different temperature zones without having to sacrifice access to shelter.
Natural Sand Glazed Ceramic
Unlike lightweight plastic decorations, the ceramic construction gives the Exo Terra Den a substantial, stable feel within the enclosure.
The natural stone-like colour and textured exterior also make it easy to combine with rocks, branches, plants and other terrarium décor.
