hello everyone. i decided today that i was going to make one of my snakes happy by making them a new hide.

i was talking to my brother about ideas as i wanted something a little different and we came to the conclusion of making a turtle snake hide where it is a dome shape with 4 legs and a tail but when the snake peeks out its the head... so the whole funny thing was to turn my snakes into a turtle... yes, random but i thought it could be quite funny. . .

. . . anyway it is currently baking in the oven for about 3 hours at low heat to dry it out but here are some pictures of what it looked like before i cooked it:

I think a shell pattern would make it even more awesome than it already is :D
Emmzi Posted - 14/01/2013 : 13:46:57

Awwh awesome :)
AcidicAngel Posted - 10/01/2013 : 14:37:56
I've just put mine in the oven for it's baking time lol. I've just made a simple wooden themed one as I like my vivs to be natural. Doesn't look like wood at the minute though XD
Emmzi Posted - 10/01/2013 : 12:16:14
he he my brother is trying to find a turtle mould to make another one, and hopefully doing painting on the weekend :) cant wait!!
AcidicAngel Posted - 10/01/2013 : 00:09:57
I'd probably do a wood themed thing and use natural colour like browns and green to make it look like mossy wood :)
Isoldael Posted - 09/01/2013 : 19:35:23
Can't wait to see the end result :D Currently thinking of what shape to do if I were to make one... want to make something naturally-looking :D
Emmzi Posted - 07/01/2013 : 11:58:08

Ness Posted - 07/01/2013 : 10:14:56

Keeps it from rotting..

The salt kills anything that might want to eat it.
