Perfect as a damp hide for my leopard gecko
I got this hide for my new leopard gecko and it’s perfect to use as a damp hide.Size wise it’s actually smaller inside than it seems and I’m really glad I got the large. The door to the hide is a good size but is a little way above the ground so if you have a smaller leopard gecko you may want to add a stone or something under it to help them climb them. I have it in a 4ft viv and takes up very little space. There’s still plenty of room for my guy though and he seems to be happy enough hiding out in there.The fact that it has a base and the whole of the top comes off makes it perfect to add moss and creat a damp hide for a leopard gecko to help with shedding. It’s easy to clean and the lip on the bottom of the base keeps the moss in place even when you lift the top off, so you can check it regularly for any mould or mess.The whole hide looks great and really natural and far more attractive than the homemade damp hides I’ve had for other reptiles.It isn’t the cheapest hide but it’s really practical and I do think it’s worth the money.Overall I’m really happy with this hide and would definitely recommend it, especially the large sized one for leopard geckos.

Great hide for leopard gecko
Bought as a moist hide for our leopard gecko. Very solid and well made. Excellent size and gecko seems happy to go in it - added sphagnum moss but it does dry out quite quickly (easily solved by spraying with water). Would recommend.

Great size
The media could not be loaded. Great size. Perfect for my African fat tailed gecko. Love how the top comes off for easy access. I’m not a fan of the glossy finish on this though. I have the Exo terra cave which is a matt finish which looks more realistic. But other than that I’m very happy.

Great hide for Leopard Gecko
My daughter got a leopard gecko and she loves the hide!Pro:+ the hide comes in two parts and you can spray the moss easily+ the opening is small enough to retain humidity for almost a whole dayCon:- the tolerance of the fitting is too big for my liking- the price

Excellent Gecko Cave
First of all I would like to say this item came very well packaged lots of bubble wrap for protection of item and delivered in a box. The item it's self is first class. Question I always ask myself would I buy this item again and recommend it, answer is most definitely.

soo much better than zoo med
i had a zoo med cave in the same kind of design and it just cracked and the paint chipped away and they sent me another one and it did the same thing. i knew i should have stayed with exo terra products because i have has no problems with this one and my geckos love it. its made of a good strong material which is easy to clean. i would recommend it to anyone.

👍🏻Just as good as the medium size cave.👍🏻
We've got the medium size cave already. Unfortunately the leopard gecko had outgrown it. Amazingly, Exo Terra have the next size up available. The larger version was perfect. Realistic, hard wearing and easy to clean. 👍🏻

Big enough for full grown leopard gecko!
First off, my gecko is a full grown, 14 year old male. He's recently been having trouble lifting his back legs, and it's most likely the beginning stages of metabolic bone disease (common in some reptiles, but can be prevented with proper care). I used to have a Zilla Medium Rock Layer for him, but that was way too small and cramped for a full grown gecko. And I honestly believe that the Zilla moist hide I was using before is part of what caused my gecko's back problems too.This Exo Terra Cave is perfect for a COOL, MOIST hide! And it's spacious inside for my gecko to turn around without hurting himself! If you use it as a moist hide, just be sure to spritz it often as the moisture will evaporate eventually. It's essential to have 2 caves for leopard geckos, one moist and cool, and one dry and warm. This one traps in moisture so it's good. Don't recommend using it for a warm hide though because if you use a heat mat under the tank, it won't heat all the way through the tank, the substrate, and then the bottom of this cave too so it wouldn't get warm enough.I love this brand (Exo Terra) because their items are smooth (no sharp edges to file down, nothing to hurt your pets), easy to clean, and the shape of them is very well thought out so that these caves will be perfect for any reptile, amphibian, etc. The lid as shown is detachable for easy cleaning, and easy to spray to keep moist.The Pop Socket in the picture is for size reference. The entry hole is big enough for a leopard gecko and similar sized species. I wouldn't recommend for a ball python or snakes of that size because the entry is an "O" and the snake may get stuck if it is too big to fit through the hole. Could probably DIY and take off the bottom part of the entry though if you're careful.Sphagnum Moss is better for this cave, but I'm all out so using moist paper towels for now.It's awesome, highly recommend it!
