Exo Terra Jungle Vine, Large, Multi (PT3086)

I've been using Exo Terra Vines for my gecko tank since 2004. They're great quality and perfect for adding extra climbing terrain above his cave, as well as making the whole environment look a lot less empty. The texture looks and feels very realistic, and has a really good grip. Highly recommended! The large size comes packaged as one reeeeally long bendable tube. Since I only have a 10 gallon tank, I prefer to fold it in half, twist the 'legs' together, and loop it around in a loose spiral to maximize the space. Sometimes I make interesting kinks and shapes to change up the look, but mainly so *I* don't get bored. My leopard gecko couldn't care less - he's happy as long as he can poop from a decent altitude. :p The smaller sized vines don't need to be twisted the same way unless you want added sturdiness for heavier lizards. NOTE: Be careful when bending the vines, because bits of the coating can flake off pretty easily, especially from the larger size. It doesn't ruin the product, but you may need to Swiffer the floor afterward. Also don't bend it too often in one spot, because like any coated/insulated wire (*cough* Apple *cough*), the tube itself can crack with too much stress. The surface is a magnet for droppings (both lizard and cricket), so I replace the vines every time I do a full cleaning of the tank. But that's not enough to take a star off, since they otherwise last a heck of a long time. The photo I uploaded features the smaller vines. (My gecko is ~9" head to tail for comparison.) The large vines are about 1.5x the circumference.

I purchased his on sale for $7.99 with prime shipping and boy I have been very satisfied! As many reptile lovers know, shopping for these items can get very expensive quick! Especially if you purchase through a local store. I want to get as much as I can for as little as I can and this did the trick! The vine is 6 feet long and I was able to divide it between my two Large Rubbermaid All Access Bins. The vine is very bendy and holds its shape very well! I just drilled small holes and used black zip ties to hold them in place and they have not moved at all, even with my babies climbing them! They love it and I love it as even though it is fake it looks very real and very nice! Just what I was looking for! (I ordered the size small) Thank you! I also received this and my flukers leafy vine a day early!!

I love these vines! Four years later and I can still easily bend them. They hold up every well for long periods of time. I've accessorized them with intertwined vines for a more natural look. I was initially worried about the coating flaking off but that hasn't been an issue even with the washing. Aspen and coconut husks (when dried) to get attached to the vine. It's easy enough to brush or pull off, but I felt that was worth noting for aesthetic purposes. They're very easy to use and I normally have them doubled over each other or twisted together. They can also hold up being placed in a loop and sitting vertically. There's so many possibilities with this product. That makes it fun to play with while also fulfilling your decorating needs. My snake also loves to climb on them.

Order the large if you have a crested gecko adult or a bigger little one! I was debating between small and large, got the large, and was surprised that it is still pretty narrow. It works for us, but glad that we didn't go smaller. This is very rough-textured, which provides a great grip. It seems like the top layer would dry out and peel off if you bent it around too much, though -- so I'd be wary of that. Thus far, we've had no issues with what we ordered from amazon. A few weeks later, I did buy an Exo Terra reptile setup that came with one of these and one of the smalls (which is very very small), and that particular one must have been older or something because bending it just a little to fit it in the cage made it crack and peel. It looks like some form of cardboard on the inside I guess? And the heavy texturing is shedding. I'll leave it at this -- if I knew of an alternative option that wasn't extremely expensive, I'd probably go that direction because I'm not sure about how long these will last. The one I got in the setup may have been just a dud or one that had sat in the box for years under extreme temperatures. But, the one I ordered from here does work pretty well so it's at least worth the $11 I paid for it, for now.

Love this! My ball python likes to climb and I did not want to use anything with suction cups due to snakes being heavier. The look and feel of this vine is amazing! It looks very realistic. I bought the large, twisted it together and attached it in 3 places. I bought 3M zip tie squares so I was able to attach it to the glass(sold separately, but a great price on amazon). If you purchase the 2 together you will not regret it!!! If using for a snake, I would recommend the 3M zip tie squares as I don’t think it will hold up well just placed in a tank with no support. I will probably be buying another to add!

I purchased this vine in size small, for my baby tree frog, who is housed in a 12x12x18 tank setup. The vine itself is about 6 feet long, a good amount of vine to work with, and the diameter is perfect for small frogs to climb and sleep on. This is a newer version of this vine, which is water proof. The older versions had problems falling apart when wet. Cleaning isn't too much of an issue. A good soak in very hot water should take care of general cleanings and too loosen up stool. I wouldn't recommend scrubbing it though, as it does still seem delicate if you pick at it. Now for the most important part, my frog. It definitely approves of this vine, and tends to spend a lot of time on it since I placed it in there. Sleeping, climbing, hopping from one end to another, etc. My frog is a Grays, so its natural habitat involves trees, bark and branches. Since adding this vine, it has spend more time out in the open, especially during the day when it sleeps. I would definitely recommend this product!

I opened the box and tried to gently straighten the vine out and the thing snapped in two places exposing the wires inside. It is NOT bendable! UPDATED From a 1 Star Review: Out of desperation and lack of other options, I repurchased this in the hopes that my previous one was simply an old dried out product. It appears that I was correct. While there still is a significant amount of texture flaking off the vine, this one did bend without breaking. I was very careful to bend it very gently and slow and was able to achieve my desired look and function. Plus my gecko seems to love it.

My crested gecko loves climbing this and I love how big it is, his enclosure is very tall and this fits well, it's also bendable/shapes well so I can switch it up sometimes. It's not spiky and as soon as I got it, he climbed onto it. Great product. 10/10

Voici une liane qui dure dans le temps et qui est très appréciée par mes reptiles. Une qualité au top comme la plupart du temps avec les produits Exo Terra. Que ce soit dans un contexte humide ou sec cette liane est belle et fonctionnelle !
