I am setting up a viv for Gizmo. I am going to get some branches from the trees on my grandads land but I am unsure on what I can use. I have searched on here but cant find a answer about all woods. There is:
Silver Birch
Apple Tree (cooking and eating)
Pear Tree
Cherry Tree (Wild and Planted)
The branch is to be for Gizmo to climb. I have read about the striping bark and soaking in bleach etc. I would prefer to use the Silver Birch if I can but I can use the others if needs be.
Cheers |

Although I see no references anywhere to Silver Birch.
One of the things that is important to think about is that a large amount of the plants on the lists are for herps in general, so it would affect herbivores/omnivores more than carnivores due to the fact that they eat vegitation so have a much larger chance of ingesting something apparently toxic to them.
This doesn't mean that it's safe to put potentially toxic plants into a snakes viv, one of my snakes tried to eat a plant once. |

I couldn't find anything about Silver Birch, I got a branch off of a Wild Pear Tree so will be using that.
