*Habba Hut™ is an all-natural product. Dimensions represent approximate size and may vary between individual pieces.
Important Size Information:
- Natural variation means actual size, shape and internal space may differ from the guide above
- Wood thickness varies, which can significantly affect the usable space underneath the hide
- Thicker logs provide a sturdier structure but reduce internal clearance
- Thinner logs may offer more internal room but vary more in shape
- Two huts of the same size may differ noticeably in internal space and appearance
- We recommend choosing a size based on your reptile’s body width and enclosure space rather than exact measurements
Tip: If your reptile is close to the maximum size for a hide, we recommend choosing the next size up to ensure adequate internal space.
