I'm making my baby snake a new natural looking hide, and while I'm at it I wanted to make some sort of climbing thing for Harley. I remembered reading on here where someone had made a hammock for their snakes but I can't seem to find it... I've got some plastic 'netting' (it's not actually net... More like soft window mesh. Nothing a snake could get any part of its body stuck in) that I think would work out well in case it needed washing.

Does anyone have any pictures of something like this? I'm trying to put ideas together for how to set this up in a way that it won't fall down and risk Harley hurting herself on it.

Here's a few ideas. All you need are a some suction cups!

I believe Chris-uk holds the patent on the Thammock.

The Thammock is currently decommissioned but the boys have something similar (that's more of intertwined vines held up with string to give them the impression that they are in undergrowth). I'll be giving the girls a new, improved Thammock when I get time to put it together.
The Thammock was made from 3-core natural sisal, with regular string to help join between the bigger gaps, and some fake plants woven into the mix.

Snake Man made one for his little radix, Lucy. http://i1189.photobucket.com/albums/z438/redcar122/2012-08-05_11-56-25_624.jpg

I have the ReptiHammock. I've have two so they have a bigger place to hang out on. It sits below a heat light.

Thanks guys; some neat ideas! Hopefully I'll get her tank re-done before Christmas. I'm trying to get everyone's tanks decorated so that they're happy, but I don't cringe when I look at them either lol. I really like the idea of putting two together, especially since I'm going to be putting Sithis in with her as soon as he gets large enough :)
