There is a topic in DIY section about preparing wooden sticks etc for the vivarium.
Can you use any sticks that you find in a forest etc?
Is there any wood that you cant use?
Thanks

You do realise she could go into labour at any time from now on in??!!! What would you have done had her waters broken when you were somewhere in a forest 5 miles squared?!!!

Its the same reason you can't use sawdust or Hamster shavings for substrate.
I'm not sure whether it will ever be safe, I wouldn't risk it myself personally. |

Oh dear. Thanks.
Can this sap still be released after the wood has dried?
Cheers

The sap in Pines gives off Phenols which are toxic to snakes. |

Why do you stay away from pines mate?
Any reason?
Ive just been stick hunting and got a really nice looking piece, similar to one in your photos. It was in a forest with loads of pine trees though, so im guessing its pine.
Thanks

Sorry, no idea what they are. I just stay away from soft wood/pines/conifers. |

They look like just normal branch wood off a tree from a woodland or forest.  |
