Has anyone heard of Manzanita branches? I saw them advertised on LLL website, claim to be light weight & ideal for chams. Any thoughts if you have used these, can they be attached with thumb tack like dow rods or any other suggestions on how to attach them? So everyone give me their thoughts on this product. Thanks!!
 
It is very light and mold resistant. I use my manzanita for outdoor sunning, and if I need to, in a reptarium for transport to the vet. My album has a picture of it. I think most pieces would need more than a tack for side attachment...maybe more like small diameter screw and 2" washers on both sides, but I have not tried it. Just live plants and biovines in my permanent enclosures.
 
I used to have them in my old cages and they were awesome. I just visited the same tree for my new cage and got a big piece with multiple branches and stuck it in the soil of my plant and it leans a little on the cage. From there I just use twist ties to put other branches in random spots all connected to the main one. I love them and if you can find a tree go for it
 
Manzanita bushes are everywhere up in the local mountains here. Last winter I collected a bunch of seeds and planted them, with no luck. Some branches are curvey and long and can be cut to the right lenght, but never thought to get some for my cages.
