At the McDonough show today, which was more of a bird show than a herp show, I decided to look for good perches that would work for arboreal snakes. There was one I was quite impressed with. It is actually a shower perch designed for parrots. The perch system is constructed of mainly PVC, and the actual perch itself is coated w/ some kind of textured rubber. Depending on the size of the perch, the whole thing is supported by 2 or 3 suction cups. You could even buy two and set them up perpendicularly for species that like to drape themselves over several points, such as ammies and carpets. The little eye hook on the end is mainly for added support, but not really needed. Nothing seems abrasive enough to harm a snake on it. These perches also fold away, and would work well for those of you who actually keep parrots. The perches go from $15-20, depending on size. What do you think?

The company that carried them at the show is
Parrots Playthings, but they don't have this perch on their site. So I guess they get them from the link above.
