Eco Tech Reptile Birch Hide

• Birch log look – a natural bark-textured finish that blends into a planted or naturalistic setup.
• Resin construction – solid and stable, won't collapse or crush like a real hollow log can.
• Enclosed retreat – a confined space animals can back into and feel covered on more than one side.
• Two sizes – Medium and Large, so the opening can be matched to the animal it's for.

Choose a hide close to your animal's body size – too roomy and it stops feeling secure. Medium suits smaller-bodied reptiles and amphibians; Large gives more clearance for a bigger-bodied animal or a pair sheltering together. If in doubt, size down rather than up.

• Suited to terrestrial reptiles and amphibians that use ground-level hides – geckos, small skinks, and similar species that shelter rather than burrow.
• Not intended as a nesting or egg-laying box, and not sized for larger-bodied snakes or lizards – check the internal dimensions against your animal before buying.

Resin is non-porous, so the hide can be wiped down or rinsed and disinfected as part of normal enclosure cleaning without the hide breaking down or holding odour the way a real log can.

Is this a real log or a replica?

It's a resin replica shaped and finished to look like birch bark – it won't degrade, mould or need replacing the way real wood can.

Can it go in a humid or bioactive enclosure?

Yes – resin doesn't absorb moisture, so it holds up in humid setups without softening or growing mould.

Will it float in a paludarium water section?

We don't have manufacturer data confirming buoyancy, so if you're using it near or in water, weight-test it first or keep it on the dry side of the enclosure.
