DIY Hobbit Hole Hide | Snake Discovery Build Off Hide
#HobbitHole #DIYreptilehide #DIYBallPythonHide
I’m so glad you showed how you made that!! I thought it was amazing and I agree that the results of the contest are arbitrary. Everyone made a really cool enclosure. 🐍❤️🐍
Yea they did - they were all so beautiful! 😊
I would happily take anyone on of the 10 enclosures. I’ve never seen your videos until the Tank build off but I actually chose your tank because I have a leopard geckos and i could see my boy loving this enclosure.
@@candylovejoy9805 Same here! I’m so glad Snake Discovery had that challenge because I wouldn’t have found Elle’s channel as soon as I did. I just got my first reptile, a gorgeous, male BP and I love him so much!
Congratulations on your new pet! I hope you get many years of love and enjoyment with it.
I love that hide. The entire enclosure was fantastic which is why I voted for it! I wish I could be there to bid on it. I would try to make one myself but I have absolutely no artistic talent.
I really loved yalls hobbit hide! It was one of my favorite brought from home items.
Thank you! 😊
You guys did an awesome job. It looked really good in the build off.
Kudos!
Thank you! 😁
Yay!! I was hoping to see a video on it because I want to make it for my hamster. ❤️
Loved that hide, very cool concept!
Thank you! 😁
Im half way through my first custom hide build for my boa and im going for an overgrowth on rock look. I wasent sure how to do the overgrowth but the sheet moss is perfect. Thank you!
gonna use this for my snake thanks
That hide is soo cool! your ideas are so creative and inspire me to make my own reptile decorations. What kind of water sprayer do you have/where did you get it? Ive seen it in a lot of your videos and it looks really helpful instead of a sparay bottle.
I voted for you! You had me at hobbit hole 😂😂
I can't get over your accent, so adorable. Been watching for year's, love seeing you both enjoying the hobby together.. Your fan from Huntsvegas AL!!
Haha thank you so much! 🥰
Amazing work on creating an awesome hude
Loved your build!
Awesome tutorial. Thanks!🎉
I loved this hide and your enclosure was the bomb!
Thank you so much! 😊
That was Awesome 😮
I really liked your hobit hole and was looking to make my own. Nice to see a video come out about it! Thanks!
I'm glad the video could help 😁
Such a great hide idea, and beautifully executed! Looking forward to seeing what you make for yourselves in the future!
I love the hide!
You did great! Loved this collaboration.
Absolutely awesome!!
I Absolutely loved your enclosure the most out of all of them and there were a lot of incredible builds but your to me was the one that stood out to me for what I would want for my enclosures. I did vote for your enclosure for the build off. It was so much fun to watch... LOVE LOVE LOVE how Amazing yours came out. I truly think you should have been placed higher on that list even though 4th is a great finish!! ❤️❤️❤️😊😊😊
I will do that in my snake tank❤
Thank you! Love this ❤️ can’t wait to make it
Not only is it unique and good looking, but very practical
Thank you!
So cute! I love hobbit houses!
That is SO awesome how you made the hide. I might have to try that out some time.
But so glad you guys did so well in the competition. You guys had my vote. 😊
Wow so cool.
Thank you 💜
My favorite home item was your guys and the tools from Garrett
Yea, Garrett's tools are what sealed the deal for Den haha
@@ellesreptiles Honestly his idea and story is why I voted for him. I've never seen a cage like that before even if it's not something I would normally do myself. Otherwise itd be you and Clint all day ❤
You could also use 100 percent silicone caulk its easier to find ..
And as far as coconut fiber you can actually find that in compressed 8crt blocks at home depot as well you just have to break it up and it's much cheaper in comparison to buying it at a pet store
amazing! I'm totally going to use this in my future gecko tank!
I'm so glad you guys got fourth, I am such s huge fan of so many people who were in the build off, it was honestly hard to choose when everyone's build was INCREDIBLE but I voted for you guys!!! I love the hobbit hide and was excited to see this video 😍
So many amazing enclosures! But thank you so much! 🥰
I voted for you guys. I loved your enclosure. The hide definitely helped!
Thank you!!! Cause I LOVED that hobbit hide!
It was definitely the most fun hide we've built. 😊
I needed a Wednesday video this week 😁 Such a cool hide!!! Maybe my pink tongue skink would like something like this 💚💚💚
Thank you! And pink tongues are so adorable 🥰

Hey happy Wednesday,this is such a cool idea
Happy Wednesday! And thanks 😊
Hi Elle, hope you're Wednesday is going amazing!!! Another wonderful video!!
Thank you! I hope you had a great Wednesday 😊
@@ellesreptiles thank you Ma'am 😊
Great job! I might try that🤔😁👍
Thanks! 😊
Much simpler, but I've built one using an egg box, with the same silicone and coco fibre method. It's not as pretty, but It's ideal for the little'uns and you can whip it up in about 10 minutes... Plus curing time.
That's an awesome idea! 😊
You guys got my vote because for my taste the more natural looking the better, and maybe I’m a little biased cause I think y’all are awesome 👏
Haha well thank you! 🥰
Not to be creepy (and then keeps typing) your teeth are amazing. I'm jealous of your smile 😁
do you have a tutorial for the rock piece in the corner of the enclosure? I would really like to replicate it.
My family is planning to travel to the grand opening how cool would it be to bring your enclosure back to Alabama
How do you feel the moss will hold up long term with humidity?
Where can you buy sheet moss?
I’m thinking about incorporating pvc caves(wider than my snake can ever get) into the foam backdrop of my bio build. Do you have any concerns with this?
I was literally only watching to see if there was something I could spray my boas current hide with so it diesnt scratch them.
Might be a silly question, but would it be ok to do this for a non-bioactive tank as well. Im Pretty sure it has to be I want to do one for my ball python
This video was excellent! What are your thoughts on applying silicon to the inside of the pipes and coating it in coir, rather than applying the shellacking?
You definitely could do that! We were a bit short on time to make this, but silicone definitely would have looked better! 😊
You did an amazing job on the snake tank build. You deserved 2nd place, but since this is your first time 4th place is okay. You will do better next time around.
You video's are fantastic, informative and creative.
Haha thank you! 😊
Foam eventually melts in water so fgood thing to cover it entirely in silicon.
I really want to make this hide but I'm curious on how to clean/sanitize it.
This hide was put into a bioactive tank, so the cleanup crew does all the cleaning. 😊
It probably wouldn't be great in a non bioactive tank.
Congratulations on 4th place
Thank you! 😊
How long the cocofiber and moss will last?
Since I don't have this one anymore, I'm not sure. But I make my own backgrounds using the same materials/process. I've had those tanks set up for years, even with animals crawling all over them. 😊
@@ellesreptiles thanks for the fast reply,im thinkin of making one big soon,ur video helped alot
I voted for y’all I’m not gonna lie
Well thanks! 😁
I voted for y’all, had to vote for fellow Alabamians.
Haha thank you! 😊
how are people cleaning these when the reptiles ship on them ?
This was created specifically for bioactive tanks, so the cleanup crew breaks down the animal's waste. 😊
Definitely not recommended for any other kind of setup.
