ProRep Dark Wood Log Hide

The ProRep Dark Wood Log Hide is a resin vivarium hide designed to replicate the look of a hollow, weathered log. Built for reptile keepers who want functional cover that also contributes to a naturalistic enclosure aesthetic, it suits a wide range of terrestrial and semi-arboreal species. Available in three sizes to suit enclosures of different scale, from compact setups to larger terrariums.

Natural Appearance, Practical Design

Cast in durable resin with a dark wood grain finish, this hide blends convincingly into woodland, forest floor, and bioactive vivarium setups. The textured surface and tonal colouring give it the appearance of aged, decaying timber without the risks associated with collected wood — no mites, no rot, no unwanted guests.

What It Does for the Animal

Hides are not optional extras — they are a core welfare requirement for most reptile species. A secure, enclosed retreat allows animals to thermoregulate and rest without stress. The low-profile, snug interior of this log hide encourages natural sheltering behaviour, helping kept reptiles feel secure in their environment.

Suitable Species and Setups

• Well suited to colubrids, skinks, geckos, and similarly sized reptile species
• Complements woodland, temperate, and tropical vivarium builds
• Works equally well in naturalistic and bioactive setups
• Resin construction is easy to spot-clean and disinfect

Choosing the Right Size

This hide is available in small, medium, and large variants — select the size that allows your animal to fit inside comfortably with light contact on the sides, which is the fit most reptiles prefer. Use the dimensions listed on each variant to match your animal's body length and girth before ordering.

A well-chosen hide placed at the cool end of the enclosure gives your animal genuine security and supports natural behaviour — this range makes it straightforward to get that right.
