Hey guys, ive got lots of stones around where i live, and i also
live beside a forest and bog (bogwood!) so i was wondering what
type of wood i can use for my snakes, and what treatments i would
need to use to make it safe for them, and same things with
the stones/rocks?
Thanks, |

Got a few bits of willow, some interesting shapes and getting em sanded down!
Also found a great piece of thick ivy wood, but not sure if its suitable? anyone know? :s
Thanks! |

Just over 100 degrees C and for about 20 minutes at the most, once it dries out it will burn so keep an eye on it.
Oh and stones shouldn't be put in the oven (I know it wasn't said to do this on here) they can explode. |

hes the way to treat wood, could bake instead of bleach if it will fit in the oven

stones i would scrub an rinse a few times with disifectant or bleach.
when i collect wood i just make sure its not from/near any conifer looking trees |
