went today to get some new thermometers for tank but went to a recommended shop by a friend got there saw a lovely viv and got talking to the owner he was showing me some of the rescue snakes he has which he does for the rspca when we was talking explained about my viv and set up which bought last week from a different shop when he starts telling me that the viv isnt good enough and the set up was poor for the money i paid well agreed with him as when we got home and stopped bouncing around with excitment realised the viv was a cheap poor put together excuse which wasnt very secure tried fitting lock but glass wasnt tough enough and cracked replaced glass and thats how we ended up there well top and bottom of it is walked out today with new viv and another corn in need of rescue but abit worried about putting horatio in new viv with tas andy(shop owner) says this is fine but wondered what everybody else thought sorry for the long essay husband always says i go on

I think you can get some trainers made from Hemp too. It must be one of those 3 things, can't see it being anything else
