Great product. Date: December 11, 2008
"I bought this for my Royal Ball Python. He loves it. He gets on top which I think helps with the shedding since its rough. It looks great too. The price is a lil' too much but I think it's a great product (worth it)."

Nice touch and CHEAP! Date: August 10, 2008
"I have two baby beardies, a few weeks old. Who seem to love this. They like to bask on it, haven't gone under though seem a bit scared. One of my beardies 'waved' for the first time on here, which makes it even better =D
I don't like that the bark comes off easy, and knowing babies they can choke on it. But that's probably known going into it.
Sometimes i tip it vertically so they can get closer to their basking light, this won't stop them from going on it. It's kinda neat to see them climb up it.
I think it adds a nice touch, plus it's cheap. Deff recommend this."

I Love It! Date: July 25, 2008
"This product is great, I get to run on top of it and sleep under it. Whenever I go to the pet store with my owner, I always see the other reptiles, and they always have this product for them. I guess they love it as much as I do!

Great Date: May 20, 2008
"I had hermit crabs and now I have a Leopard gecko and they both loved this item. It gave my crabs a nice place to hide at and feel secure and it also is great for my new leo as a place to rest. The outside is a nice quality and it's a little rough to give good grip for climbing and also for shedding leos who need something to rub the excess skin off on. I recommend this to anyone looking for a quality hide."

Leopard geckos love it Date: May 11, 2008
"My leopard gecko love to hide in his Mac's Creatures & Critters Pet Refuges. It is a great hiding spot to relax and sleep. It can also be used for basking under a light. I have not had any problems with it. My leopard gecko have also not been cut by Mac's Creatures & Critters Pet Refuges."

turtles love it Date: May 9, 2008
"I bought the large size for my box turtle and she loves to crawl under it and sleep. She even tries to climb over it which is very entertaining to watch. After seeing her enjoy this I bought another large for my 20inch long lizard and he curls inside with no problem! He loves to climb over it and chase his crickets.
Pet safe, and is pretty heat resisitant. Can be safe from a little water but too much will make it rot."

Multi uses Date: May 4, 2008
"We bought a Mac's Creatures & Critters Pet Refuge for our sons Leopard Gecko when we bought it for him at Petco. We've not had the Mac's Creatures & Critters Pet Refuge in Puppysnakes tank for a little over 7 years and he loves it. He goes under it to sleep at night, uses it to help loosen and remove his sking when he's shedding. He also likes to get on top of it after we put crickets in there so he can see where they are all hopping off too....hahaha. I can honestly say that the Mac's Creatures & Critters Pet Refuge has many more uses then you'll first realize and takes care of many things without having to buy multiple items. We're planning on buying a new Mac's Creatures & Critters Pet Refuge on my hubbys next payday but in a larger size so Puppysnake and stretch out without running out of leg room"

my leopard gecko loves it but... Date: February 21, 2008
"My young leopard gecko LOVES it. The only thing that bothers me is that it blocks the sun from the heat lamp. I fixed the heat problem by using a heat mat. I donno. Luna loves it!!"

Nice product Date: February 19, 2008
"My pythons love to get into it and peek out with their heads. The spend most of their time in it. My two boys are almost both 4 feet long and both of them fit into this. I believe when are are both full grown, which will be abour 5 or 51/2 feet they will still fit inside of it together."

Great hideout Date: February 11, 2008
"My leopard gecko absolutely loves this log: she sleeps under it all day, and it's the perfect size for her (medium). I've had the log for about three years, and I've washed it several times, and it hasn't gotten moldy or attracted any unwanted insects, nor has any of the bark come off. I would definitely recommend this product."

Nice! Date: February 5, 2008
"I have two of these for my snakes, and they both enjoy them very much. The rough bark is useful to aid in shedding, and overall very aethetically pleasing. The only problem is it doesn't seem easy to clean, but I also haven't needed to clean mine yet."

Frogs love this log Date: January 28, 2008
"I bought this for my green tree frogs. They love to lay on it to get warm under the lamp. They also use it to hide under and bury themselves in the dirt. I would recommend this for anyone that has frogs."

BEST HIDEOUT EVER! Date: January 19, 2008
"I love this log and so do my 2 pack man frogs! i got the x-larg for them and thay can both fit in there at once (they are rather large frogs so not many hideouts fit them both at once) I use to have to get 2 of those pet igloos in the small animal section! they also can get wet with out molding wich is pritty asome since they are made of real wood- so they also go along whith their habitat!"

Ideal Hide Date: January 18, 2008
"My young cornsnake loves this hide. She is in it often and I plan on buying a larger size as she grows. It's safe and provides a natural hide that animals feel safe in. It also makes a perfect toy for rodents as well."
