Mr Snake was too big for her hides so I moved her up to bigger ones. I saw that many people use tupperware boxes for hides so I used 2 identical Quality Street tubs. I cut a hole in the side and smoothed it down, but she doesn't want to go in.
Is this something that will take a while or if she refuses now is it unlikely for her to ever take to her new home?
She is in a vivarium btw. |

| Not a problem I've come across myself - my guys will hide anywhere dark and cosy - but I wonder if the containers still smell of the chocs? |

| That's what I thought so I gave them a good wash. Tupperware often stinks of plastic so I figured it should be ok. I certainly can't smell the chocs. |

So you think I should stick with it for another while then...ok. Thanks.
In the meantime, if anyone else has any suggestions, please share. |

| Good call, Chris. When the sun came up this morning she went into her new hide. Maybe it took a while to get used to the purple. |
