How I made a hide for the wall

[Ipsl]

Well I've seen people glue hides to the walls. So this is what I did.

I took a non-glazed half log ($6.99)
Some magnets from the Depot ($2.25 for an 8 pack)
Aquarium Sealant from the Depot ($8 I think)

I glued 8 magnets to the log. 4 on each side. Let it dry over night and vola!
If your going to do this for anything bigger than a full grown crestie I would suggest Neodymium magnets there the strongest magnets you can buy (one smaller than a dime and an 8th of an inch thick has 2 lbs of pull

put corresponding magnets on the back and there we go.

Hope that helps someone.

I did something similar to make a ledge in one of our leo's cages--she likes to climb high to poop, weird, but hey whatever works.

I bet the smaller magnets would be fun to work with some tree branches or hanging vines for the cresties. You'd have to test the leap factor to make sure it'd still hold though.
