Habba Hut

A half-log wooden hide for a natural-looking shelter. A simple, cheap way to give a reptile the cover it needs to feel safe.

Our take

Alongside a humid hide, a plain dry hide gives a reptile somewhere to shelter and feel secure, and this half-log looks the part in any terrarium. Reptiles that cannot hide stay stressed, off their food and prone to illness, so cover is welfare, not decor. Add a little moss inside if you want a humid version. It suits reptiles and doubles for small mammals too. Give hides at both ends of the temperature gradient so the animal never has to pick between safe and warm.
