{"product_id":"exo-terra-crocodile-skull-hide-out","title":"Exo Terra Crocodile Skull Hide Out","description":"\u003cp\u003eA skull hide is a hide first — an ornament the animal can get inside beats one it only walks past. Reptiles without cover stay alert and stressed, so most keepers run two hides, one at each end of the temperature gradient, and a skull is a reasonable way to make one of them look like something. The Crocodile Skull is the long one in Exo Terra's skull range: an elongated, low-slung crocodilian skull whose openings run front-to-back through the snout and jaw, so it behaves like a tunnel rather than a dome.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne size here, the Medium (PT2856). That shape suits slender, long-bodied animals — young snakes, skinks, geckos that prefer a close-fitting tunnel — and sits better in a wide, shallow enclosure than a tall one. It is a hide, not a water container: the interior is open at both ends and will not hold water, so keep a proper \u003ca href=\"\/products\/exo-terra-water-dish\"\u003ewater dish\u003c\/a\u003e in the enclosure.
