Question regarding Phenols & BP's
I made a thread awhile ago about my BP getting sick, happy to report he/she is better now, but going into shed. He/She really hates her enclosure despite it being the proper size, so I've decided to build him/her a larger one out of a table I'm not using.
I was using a large clay flower pot as one of his/her hides, but this BP seems to really appreciate his/her space, so that gave me the thought of using some large pieces of bark that would serve well as his/her hide, but I read up on phenol's but couldn't find anything relating to bark it's self.
In the FAQ it states that soft 'woods' contain phenol, does this only apply only to manufactured wood chips? or all types of soft wood in general? I mean we have some pretty huge fir's up here, and given her like her space, an extra large hide like that seems like it would work, any thoughts? I'm sure I can come up other large hides fairly easily, just wanted some input.
Much appreciated.
