Pine is a big no no, turpentine comes from the sap of pine and is incredibly toxic. If you are at all unsure and dont recognise one wood from another then dont take the risk. Better to pay a litttle more from a reputable supplier than risk your snakes health. |

Pine in colour or pine? Pine is supposed to be bad for snakes, sap or something, I'll not claim to know why. |
