40 cm cork oak tree

This 40 cm cork oak branch is for keepers who need a sturdy climbing and basking element that holds up in humid tropical setups and in warmer desert enclosures. Unlike hollow cork bark, it has a solid core, so it works both as a decoration and as a climbing structure.

Why it matters

• Solid core: the piece is filled through its centre, which makes it less prone to cracking and crumbling than hollow cork bark.
• No hiding space for insects: because there is no internal cavity, feeder crickets cannot retreat inside the wood and stay out of reach of the animal.
• Moisture and heat resistance: cork oak is described as tolerant of high humidity, water and high temperatures, so the branch can be placed in humid enclosures as well as dry ones.
• Always branched: each piece is hand-sorted, so the item you receive has side forks for grip and perching.

What it works with

The branch suits tropical terrariums, where reptiles and amphibians can climb and rest on the forks, and desert setups, where it can serve as a warm elevated spot. Its 40 cm length fits small to medium enclosures, and it can be combined with other climbing and decor elements in the same setup.
