When getting frozen mice at my local P@H I noticed toys made out of grass that I thought snakes might like as hides. Any comments on suitability?

I did study them and neither had metal or glue in them. |

I wouldn't use them. Looking at the way they are woven together, if there was a weak spot a snake could wiggle its head through it could very well get caught and stuck. |

I agree with the aboth post, I would also rather be safe than sorry lol just because I worry to much even though in the wild they could come across worse things... |

i often wonder about this, i dont buy things that i think she might scratch herself on. but then i think, in the wild, everything is scratchy, maybe i dont give her hardiness enough credit?
who knows. i still err on the side of caution in the end.
I do think i can be over cautious, but like you would rather that was safe than sorry |

They are designed for mice etc who don't have scales over their eyes, so that being said they should be fine for snakes. |

They look pretty cool.
I appreciate the thoughts of them being sharp etc but out in the wild there are plenty of sharp things. I can't see sea grass being overly sharp to be fair. |

I was thinking of getting one for peri but worried about the grassy bits getting caught on her |
