Give your climbing companions a secure, elevated sanctuary that honors their natural instincts without disrupting the aesthetic of your naturalistic terrarium. Arboreal reptiles, amphibians, and invertebrates naturally seek high-canopy shelter to escape stress and rest off the substrate floor.

Molded from durable, non-porous PETG plastic, this egg-shaped hideout captures the organic look of natural canopy seed pods without the mold, rot, or bacterial retention typical of raw coconut shells. Its textured, glare-free finish blends into living greenery and cork branches. Mount it to glass walls, acrylic enclosures, or background ledges using the rear keyhole slots, and add a bed of damp sphagnum moss to create an elevated shedding and nesting microclimate.

Key Husbandry Features

  • Elevated Roosting Security: Alleviates stress by providing an enclosed, darkened retreat at canopy level where tree-dwelling species feel safe.
  • High-Humidity Safe: 100% non-porous PETG plastic will not warp, soften, or host fungus in bioactive setups maintaining 70%+ humidity.
  • Hygienic & Easy to Sanitize: Wipes clean effortlessly with warm water and reptile-safe terrarium wash, preventing waste buildup.
  • Integrated Keyhole Mounting: Features molded rear mounting slots (single mount on Small; dual mounts on Medium and Large) for suction cup or screw installation.
  • Dual-Function Microclimate: Use dry for daily resting or pack with damp moss to support hydration, healthy shedding, and egg-laying.
