Hi not sure what your setup is like but in my rubs I use a length of wooden dowel from B&Q screwed in at each end. I have these in the cornsnake and royal python rub and they weigh 435g and 900g and they are very sturdy even with the royal wrapped around them.




I got one of those flexible vines on Saturday and it probably would support my corn if it was fixed firmly at each end but it would definately bend abit. The wooden dowel is about £2 for a 3ft length so alot cheaper too if you can work it into your setup.

The vine looks alot nicer though!

Brian.

I have 2 of the large Exo Terra jungle vines in Vaders viv. I twisted them together which looks good and makes them stronger too.
