Measuring 24.3x16x12cm, it suits a range of small to medium-sized species that need a defined hiding space to feel secure and regulate stress.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy Hides Matter\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eReptiles are hardwired to seek cover. Without adequate hides, even well-fed animals in correctly heated enclosures will show chronic stress behaviours. A properly sized hide that fully encloses the animal gives them the security they need to thrive, feed consistently, and behave naturally.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCactus Design\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe cactus form fits naturally into desert, scrubland, and rocky terrarium builds. It blends with sand substrates, cork bark, and dried botanicals without looking out of place. The resin construction holds its appearance over time and won't absorb bacteria or break down with humidity fluctuations the way wood or cardboard alternatives do.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eResin Build\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eResin hides are robust, easy to spot-clean, and suitable for vivariums where substrate stays dry or lightly humid. The solid construction means the hide maintains its shape under the weight of larger occupants and resists tipping when animals push against it from inside.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSuitable Species\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeopard geckos and other small to medium gecko species\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJuvenile bearded dragons and similar agamids\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCorn snakes and small colubrid species\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSkinks and ground-dwelling lizards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTarantulas, large invertebrates, and scorpions in arid setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 24.3x16x12cm, this hide gives keepers a reliable, good-looking furniture piece that serves a genuine husbandry function — keeping animals settled and your vivarium looking considered.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peregrine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54147334504785,"sku":"DPH160","price":18.91,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0963\/0403\/8225\/files\/DPH160_1.jpg?v=1782594248","url":"https:\/\/viperia.co.uk\/products\/pr-cactus-hide-24-3x16x12cm-dph160","provider":"Viperia UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
