Description
Watch your animals without disturbing them using the Komodo Burrow Rock Hide, a 10-inch retreat sculpted and painted to read as weathered grey stone. What sets it apart is the back: instead of a solid wall, a dark viewing panel lets you check on a burrowing reptile, amphibian, or invertebrate from behind while the animal still experiences the chamber as fully enclosed. You get observation; it gets privacy.
Key Features
- See-through back panel: Check on shy or burrowing animals without lifting the hide and forcing them into the open.
- Secure burrow chamber: The enclosed cavity satisfies the instinct to wedge into a tight space, which lowers stress and encourages regular feeding.
- Realistic rock finish: Layered strata and grey mineral tones suit desert, rocky, and temperate vivarium themes.
- Easy to clean: Non-porous construction rinses down fast and will not absorb waste or odors.
- Stable footprint: A broad flat base holds position on substrate and gives the textured top a safe surface for climbing or basking.
- Low-clearance entrance: The narrow opening suits species that prefer to squeeze into a crevice, and it keeps the chamber dark even under bright overhead lighting.
How to Use
Rinse the hide before its first use, then position it against the back or side glass with the viewing panel facing out so you can see in. Bed the base level into the substrate so it cannot rock, and keep the entrance clear of loose bedding. Place it on the cooler side of the enclosure to complete your thermal gradient, or add a second hide on the warm side so your animal never has to choose between temperature and security. Spot-clean weekly and wash with warm water and a reptile-safe cleaner as needed, and check the viewing panel for condensation or substrate film so your line of sight stays clear.
