I am looking at starting to produce hides with a water bowl in the top of it. The bowl can lift out of the hide for cleaning.
It will be made from fiberglass.
The bowls can be either plastic or ceramic.
I'm looking to see what sort of demand there would be for them and what sort of sizes.

As BE said, about the size of the XL Exo-Terra hide in brown or grey. Some sort of stony colour anyway.

I would be interested as well in dark brown

I can make them to any size but as most of my collection are burms and retics I dont really use small hides.
Also what colours would you choose?




I use large exo terra hides at the moment, so something similar in size i suppose. Colour wise i'm not sure, what would you suggest? I have a green bulb guard made by yourself, and use orchid bark as substrate. Might look strange matching up with the bulb guard so a dark colour might be better.
Also would you be able to make moss boxes or moss hides in a similar way?
Would look much better than putting ice-cream tubs in when shedding.

good idea Cat, i would need a two ltr ice cream tub size for P as well...
MissCat Posted - 04/07/2009 : 22:58:43
i would go for dark browns and greys and sort of 2ltr ice cream tub size lol

I would go for similar size to the XL Exo Terra hides in a dark brown.

As Cat says, this sounds like a shower waiting to happen?
MissCat Posted - 04/07/2009 : 19:42:52
i would be interested, provided the bowl couldn't be pushed up by the royal.. do u have any design ideas?
