Just wondered if anyone had ever used a live plant set-up for a snake? I've seen lots of people using them for frogs and geckos, but not snakes. Do snakes not tend to do well in them? Or is it that they trash them?!

People have used live plants with snakes, but you have to careful to match the right plant to the right snake. Brazilians, for example, hate bright light, so you would need a plant that thrives in limited light. I think there was a thread on these very forums, in fact, about this same issue many months back? And yes, snakes do tend to trash them.
