Exo Terra Jungle Vines can be used for decorative purposes or for practical purposes. Vines are a great enrichment for reptiles or amphibians as they can safely climb the vine for enlargement of the reptiles dwelling area. Water-proof reptile vines are bendable, twistable life-like vines with a natural feel and look and can be twisted together with vines of different sizes to create a 3-D habitat. It is important not to use any logs or skulls found in the wild for your reptile enclosure as real skulls can carry worms if animal flesh is not completely degraded and logs can bring mites into your reptile enclosure that may be hiding under the bark. As skulls can be found in the wild they can mimic the natural environment of a reptile. Caves provide adequate protection and are available in a range of cave sizes to accommodate any sized reptile.Īrtificial tree logs are another fantastic place for reptiles to hide and feel safe, logs are made to look as realistic as possible but are made from top quality plastic and will not fall apart of degrade in your tank.įake skulls are a great hiding place with lots of holes for reptiles to check out their environment from the comfort of a protective animal skull. This will keep your reptiles brain active and prevent your reptile from becoming overweight.Ĭaves are a great place for reptiles to rest. Different fake plants can be used for individual reptile environments, for example cactus can be used in desert reptile set ups or denser, green, fake plants can be used in rainforest reptile environments.įake plants recreate a reptiles natural environment making them feel safe and comfortable, even reptiles born and raised in captivity will benefit from fake plans as they naturally feel more comfortable being less exposed as the artificial plants give some cover from above.įake plants can also go underwater without becoming damaged, making artificial plants perfect for turtle tanks.Īrtificial plants in reptile tanks also give food items somewhere to hide, for example crickets or live fish can hide in the fake plants meaning the lizards and turtles have to move leaves or branches to find their food. Artificial plants provide your pet reptile with somewhere to hide from predators (even though we know they are safe in their tank).
