Those are beautiful setups! I like the corn-snake one especially - just really really good, lucky snake. No, I wouldn't have paid out £100 for a bunch of corn just for a corn snake to do what corns do on it ...

Have you tried florists etc - I believe you can get dried corncobs for flower arranging etc. It's too late now, but next autumn, if in some countryside, you could just pick yourself a bunch of wheat (not sure if you meant American corn or English)when the farmer's not looking, hang it upside down for a week or so and then, voila, dried corn! (The little vandal will stll crap on it but at least it'll have been free.

Ah, those are actually the tops of corn on the cob plants - they look pretty cool for artificial ones but at that price ...

Yes, that's the only trouble with dried grass - I still think wheat might be more durable but anything flimsy, or anything like barley or oats or grass that has those whiskery seeds would be a real no-no as the whiskers, known as 'awns' can hook into animal (or reptile) anatomy. Dried corn on the cobs could look really good though ...corn snakes' backsides permitting lol.

Wilkinson's used to sell really good fake plants, quite cheaply. I had a beauty for about 10 years and when I did Ziska's viv I gave it a good wash and put it in there. But it doesn't stand up any more; madam sees to that ...

Yeah theres a real lack of good fake plants,reptile one plants are ****,£6 to £9 each and look like something a 4 year old made.

Still think the best stick on plants,are the exo terra ones.
