Ian liked this for a new hide for Kellogs, since it has a bottom on it can have moss when needed.
For an adult corn (even though she is only2) should i get medium or large? i usually prefer to see things for size judgement so not sure

Difficult. I usually try and see, if I can find the hides I like in a shop, so I can see the sizes for myself, and then order them online. I've got completely different type of cave ( Exo Terra ) , and Bazilishka's just moved from medium into large ( she's 2 and a half, and 3 and a half foot long ). The medium was way too small for her, but the large is huge.
Another thought - you could look at different websites, some of them might give you the dimensions. Looks lovely.

Fiona, to get some idea of the size of that hide, it is just slightly bigger than an A5 sheet of paper. It is also slightly smaller than a third of a cat litter tray. To give you an idea here's a couple of shots of Blaze & Woody acting as reluctant models. Blaze is just over 4 feet and Woody is just over 3 and half. Sorry, they were a bit rushed due to imminent release of bum bulges. HTH.

4 feet of Blaze:


3 and half feet of Woody.
