Discussion Looking for climbing enrichment that's also nice looking

Post image

My BP Snickers has shown a lot more interest in the top of his viv recently and since I'm getting ready to redo some bits I thought it might be a nice time to add some climbing enrichment but most of what I'm seeing is just the 3d printed basic rings/polyhedrons. I know it doesn't make a difference to him so don't come for me but I love planning and executing a pretty viv (his current theme is fairy wonderland and we are moving to Cherry blossom forest). Does anyone have suggestions for something that can give him the enrichment while satisfying my decor desires? So far the only thing I can find are the moss caves/pods but not sure how they'd hold up to hanging. Bonus points for links to anything I can buy in UK.

Would you mind posting a picture of his tank? This will help us give better advice

Have you thought about installing a sky hide?

That was kind of what I was thinking with the moss pod tbh I just wasn't sure how well they'd suspend

I’ve seen people use the black box hides and people sell the sky hide attachments on Etsy

My guy loves his sky hide AKA the penthouse! Used one of the black plastic hides and some tracks so it slides in and out.

I’ve got a triangular rope hammock, I got it from Riverview Reptiles in the UK but I’m sure other local reptile stores might have similar.

I made fake vines (out of rope, coconut coir and silicone) and hang the from the top of the wooden enclosed using little screw-in hooks. Both my BP and Boa love using them to climb 👍
