Awesome find!

We were out driving today and drove by a man's house that has a woodworking shop. He makes wooden bowls from hardwood. We stopped and chatted with him for a while and he showed us his work. It was truly beautiful! I noticed a garbage can with small/medium, chunks of wood in it. He said that was wood he gave away as fire wood. I saw a beautiful piece of maple that we could use as decoration in the snakes enclosure. He said take it! Whatever you want out of there you can have!
So here is our find! Maple and Walnut wood hides. Dried for 6-10yrs.

These are the ones we are using in the enclosure right now.

Here are the other pieces we found that we can use to switch things up.

And this is a rough cut bowl he was working on that he gave me. It's a perfect hide!

Thanks! He said we can come by any time, too!

Wow, those look really good. I bet the snakes enjoy the texture of the bark as well.

[katach]

Yeah they really love climbing on it. The babies do too!

I could probably work something out with woodworking man and post pics of good stuff. I can ship stuff to anybody interested.

I was thinking he could have a side business making snakie hides! Great stuff!!!

If you want, I could go back and get more. I'll post the pics and you could pick what you want and I'll ship it to you.

I was thinking he could have a side business making snakie hides! Great stuff!!!

Or at least try to use a method that creates fairly nice ones as a by-product.
