> 3 dayThese make perfect hides for leopard geckos. Medium and large can both work for them, it just depends on how large your gecko is. My male has a large one, but my female (adult) does fine in her medium since shes a bit smaller. I use these as their humid hides, with damp sphagnum moss inside! These hides are very sturdy and they look great.

28-10-2024It is as expected, but the entrance is a little small for my leopard gecko. I think he will use it more when I can put the bottom on. (Im waiting for my warm hide to come in so I can get rid of the blue container and use this for the moist hide.)

> 3 dayI use mine as both wet and dry hide dependant on shedding. The leopard geckos love them and it simulates their natural behavior as most of their thermo regulation comes from laying on warm rock. (dont use heat rocks though, they can burn). Doesnt hurt that it looks nice, is easy to clean, and is made from quality materials. Absolutely recommend. Edit: I ordered a third one and it took 1.5 months to ship and came dirty and damaged. Took off a star for that. Im getting a replacement as I do still recommend this product.

> 3 dayI have a grouchy old gecko that doesn’t like much and I’ve never found a moist hide that he’d actually use but he seems to love this one. Being able to take the top off to mist and clean is awesome.

> 3 dayIt’s not as deep as I’d like it to be but it still does it’s intended job. My leopard gecko loves it. I bought a medium but due to the size of the entrance hole, he might need upgraded to a large when he gets bigger. A medium fits well in a 10 gallon tank. It works well as a humid hide for my Blu. Two months later, this is Blu’s favorite hide! It is used as his humid hide. He is just about done growing and still fits in the medium I bought perfectly. I’ll definitely be thinking of purchasing two more of these hides if I get a 25 gallon tank for two female leopard geckos. Over a year later, Blu is full grown and has been upgraded to a 20 gallon. I got him a different bigger hide from Petsmart. He still likes this hide, but he barely fits in it. He’s just a normal LG, so if you have a chunky, giant, or super giant LG a medium will be too small.

> 3 dayEnded up returning this item after purchasing two for both my leopard geckos. I purchased size medium and the hole for the hide is too small for either of my adult leos to crawl through. Looks like a comfy hide, but Id be wary of whether or not your reptile will fit it.

> 3 dayDo not get the small one for leopard geckos. I got the small one and at first my leopard gecko went to hide in it. Now he don’t even look at it. I kept it in the tank for looks. I know if I got the medium size it would of been perfect.

> 3 dayMy 4 month old ball python loves this thing. He spends almost all his time in it. Now I think I need one for my leopard gecko too! I recommend putting a layer of whatever substrate you’re using in the bottom so it’s more comfy for them.

> 3 dayPerfect moist hide for geckos!!! I bought the medium and honestly when I first opened the box I wasnt even going to put it in my Blizzard leopard geckos habitat, because there was no way he would fit in it. I got the return all set to mail it back to Amazon when I decided that while I had him out, Id just see if hed fit with the lid off. He fit, so I put the lid on and he still fit perfectly! So I just completely misjudged his size in comparison. He loves this hide, and goes in it multiple times a day. I have a warm side with an under tank heater under a rock cave with a heat bulb above it, and a cool side on the otherside of the tank with a rock shelf hideaway and wooden bridge/cave, and then I have this hide in the middle of the tank a the moist hide. I line this hideout with damp paper towels and moisten them for a few days before changing them out for new ones after 3 days. The cave seems to be holding moisture, and my gecko is loving the cave itself since its so dark. Perfect size for geckos. I highly recommend!!
