4 x 4 x 4 in Burrow Buddy Acrylic Enclosure, 3 mm

Built deep for the diggers: the Burrow Buddy puts its height into packed substrate, so earth tigers, baboons, burrowing scorpions, vinegaroons and big millipedes get a tunnel that holds its shape, often right against the clear wall where you can watch it. A four inch cube. Small footprint, but the height is there so you can pack in two or three inches of substrate and still leave the animal room above it. The ventilated locking lid keeps air moving and the lid shut, and the clear acrylic gives you a full view of the animal and everything it builds. At 4 x 4 x 4 inches it is sized for animals up to about 1 inch of leg span (body length for scorpions). Grab one with your next animal and it is ready to set up the day it lands.

Why keepers pick this one

• Depth First: the height goes into packed substrate, so a burrow holds instead of collapsing.
• Locking, Vented Lid: it latches shut and breathes, so you get airflow and peace of mind in the same lid.
• Crystal Clear: 3 mm clear acrylic: light, crystal clear and far harder to shatter than glass.
• Sized for Real Animals: matched to real species and sizes (list below), so you are not guessing.

Build it out

Pair it with Tropical Burrow Mix or Desert Burrow Mix packed in deep, and a piece of Small Cork Bark to start the burrow under.

Looking after the acrylic

• Wipe with a soft damp cloth. Acrylic scratches more easily than glass.
• Skip abrasive pads and ammonia-based glass cleaners. Both haze the surface.
• Keep it out of direct sun. Heat build-up is a risk to the animal before it is a risk to the box.

Enclosure only; substrate, cork and water dish are sold separately. Sizes are outside dimensions, so measure your animal against the inside and leave a little room to grow.

Lifestyle
