Did our very first purchase with Zen habitats and our little beardie loves her Zen cave. The slate slab retains heat so well and the cave is extremely spacious. Perfect for all stages for a bearded dragon!

My beardy loves his Zen Cave. He likes to hide and. Lay on top to get that belly heat. Get yours today.

Love the product and my reptile uses it all the time.

this thing is awesome. i actually use it on my dragons cool side but i always see him climbing all over it. it's a great size and it's very sturdy!

I I got this for my 4.5 month old Lizard of Darkness and he took to it right away. Ozzy likes to do his business on his basking spot and the slate tile makes clean up a breeze. I just remove it and wipe down with a paper towel sprayed with F10. I was really hesitant because this is a little more than I wanted to spend but now I'm glad I did, It will last for Ozzy's entire life which I hope is many,many years!!

Out of the $700 worth of stuff I bought from Zen, this was by far the only item worthy of purchase and a positive review . This hide it too big to fit snuggly inside the Meridian 4x2x2. I tried multiple sides and angles and it just didn't fit. Luckily, my other dragon is in a 4x3x3 PVC enclosure I have from a few years ago and it fit perfectly in there. My male dragon Rex loves it! He basks every morning on the slate top and likes to hide inside of it after he eats his salad. $90 is a little steep for this thing, but it is well made and had no issues. The slate fit right in and comes out easily. My only suggestion is make sure you have a very large enclosure, or this hide will easily take up one entire side of what you're putting it in. I would definitely buy a second one if needed in the future.

I am so grateful that Zen Habitats exists. I know I can trust your products with my babies.

Love this basking rock! It's very sturdy and heavy and the slate sheet absorbs heat very well. My beardie took to it very quickly (within 2-3 days which is fast for a change for her) and now she loves climbing on it and chilling there. I'm so glad she loves it! Thanks Zen Habitats!
Luci S.
The cave is very high quality. It looks great, is very solid, and is larger than others on the market.
The stone piece on top of the cave didn't fit correctly like it's shown in the description. It appears to be like this in other reviews too, looks like someone even cut their stone down to the right size. When i reached out and sent photos, they said that is how theirs look and how it's supposed to look, and they offered me a refund with free shipping.
I suggested they update their photos to the correct representation of the product. Disappointing overall, I would have loved to keep it but $90 was just too much to spend for an incorrectly advertised reptile cave.
April B.
I love the zen habitat and the zen cave, and so does my dragon! Thank you for your products.
Mark S.
Our 8-month old beardie, Eden, already loves her new Zen Habitats Meridian PVC habitat. The addition of the corner cave completes the setting. As you can see, it did not take Eden long to "hug" her new cave.
Alyssa H.
Love it!! The only reason I’m giving it 4 stars is because it has a crack in the front. I felt like I spent a lot of money for it to come with faults. BUT it doesn’t effect it working.
Rachel K.
My blue tongue skink seems to really enjoy this cave. The first one I got had a crack in it, but I spoke with one of Zen Habitat's Reps and they sent in a replacement pretty quickly. The cave is larger than I expected -- it allows plenty of room for my blue tongue both inside and on top of it for basking.

We purchased the Zen 4x2 cage, the stand, the liner, and the basking rock cave. The liner makes keeping his cage clean super easy. The basking rock is a great size for him to grow with. Most nights he sleeps under the rock cave so it's a good size for him to hide in when he wants.
Krystal R.
My dragon and I both absolutely love this hide/basking platform! He's an adult and it fits him very well with plenty of wiggle room. The slate on top hold heat very well and it is very nice that it can be removed. It was certainly worth the price!
Jonathan B.
Super fast delivery. Great quality. Very pleased with it all. Thank you so much.
Nicole N.
My beardie loves the slate top it’s the perfect height and retains heat so well.

My dragons new favorite spot!

Love this hide, HUGE and glad i did get it with the new Zen viv i have ordered. I am excited for my gal to try it out.
Stephanie C.
This cave is perfect for dragons to bask. The slate on top holds heat very well! My 8 yr old loves it!!
Christina H.
My beardie(viper) absolutely loves this hide!
Michael S.
I bought both of the stones and the Zen Habitat for our Bearded Dragon. If we are going to have a pet we believe in giving them the best possible life experience and this means getting them only the best products. I reviewed many terrariums and nothing came close to ZEN. Our beardy was in a 40 Gallon Glass tank before...what a different experience these habitats are. He is so much happier. The wood sides and the amazing rocks keep him happy. He loves sunning on one side and moving to the other. GO Zen....its worth it! Exceptional customer service as well, very responsive and helpful.
Elissa C.
This is a MUST HAVE if you have a bearded dragon. It is very big and our 2 year old beardie has plenty of room to bask on top or climb inside and be totally invisible because she has so much space inside. The slate on top absorbs heat really well and I honestly feel like our bearded dragon is more active since she's been using this. It fits great inside our Zen Habitat. Totally recommend this item!!!
vanessa r.
Krymsyn loves this new item but I have to keep removing the top plate because the crickets can get under it. I don’t remove it because my Beardie loves it, it just slides to easy

All 10 of my dragons love the zen cave! Not one of them arrived damaged, huge props for that! Also, they were packed very well and I am more than thrilled. The day that I added them to my set up, all my dragons seem much happier!
Side note: some of them don't lay flat, but function just the same and cause no issues.

This thing is huge and heavy well built didn't think it was this big worth every penny
Christina H.
I'm waiting for the replacement hide as the one I received in January the slate was in pieces when I opened it I had sent an email and your team was very quick with a response and the action that was taken im sure my bearded dragon is going to love it when I recieve the replacement.
Danielle H.
The top piece was not cut properly so the stone does not fit flat, and the product also arrived broken.
Hailey H.
Absolutely adore this hide! It's the perfect size for an older dragon, and my juvenile will be very happy to call this her forever home. She took to sleeping inside of it and basking on top of it immediately! It's hard to find hides that are big enough for beardies, and the fact that this one doubles as a basking spot is just so cool!
Nilnett S.
Rigby loves his new hide! He basks on top every day, ALL DAY! You can't get him off (except for bugs of course) Thanks for making amazing quality products! Totally worth it <3
Leslie S.
love the zen basking site!!!! it's large and sturdy and I love the real slate on top that retains heat so well! My little four month old happily basks on it .... And I love that it's big enough that she will have this when she's an adult also so we don't have to get a new one as she grows ! And then at night she'll actually sleep underneath the cave
Darla S.
He absolutely loves his cave! New favorite warm place to lounge all day
Molly V.
Love that there is a larger, flat surface! Our larger bearded dragon loves that. All the other hides we have tried from PetsMart and PetCo look so uncomfortable since there is no flat surface. This is fantastic. However, I will add that we were excited about the slate but it got way too warm for our bearded dragon- up to 147 degrees under the basking light so we had to take it off. I was not expecting that. May have worked well on the cool side to keep it warmer but we didn't try that. Also, there were some rougher edges around the bottom that we sanded off so he wasn't poked but maybe we were being over protected.
Jess H.
Overall very happy with my setup, but one corner of the top stone on the stone cave was broken, a bit disappointed spending almost $700 on a setup and it not being in excellent condition. Nevertheless my dragon is very happy with her new tank.
sam W.
Both of my bearded dragons love to bask on this. It’s also a big comfy cave to go hide in for them.
Kim S.
This basking spot/hide is very large. It is about 1/3 of the enclosure. Zurg loves it and it regulates the heat much better than her previous stone/hide. VERY happy with all purchases from Zen Habitats.
Maddie B.
We have a baby bearded dragon and purchased a Zen Habitats 4x2x2 enclosure, base/stand, and the basking spot, along with a mat. It originally seemed excessive—especially since he is still little—but it has proven to be worth every penny. He loves the basking rock and hide. This is where he typically spends his days. It is very obvious that he is quite content, ‘sunning’ and being warm!!! Thank you for such great products and high quality reptile care!
Sherri F.
Our spoiled baby boy Link loves his new apartment!
Tom B.
Very nice. Sturdy and functions great. Looks nice too!
Lynnai K.
Great purchase he loves his warm basking spot!
Angela F.
My dragon loves this thing, he hangs out on it during the day and sleeps under it every night
Jennie D.
I love it....its the perfect size for large lizards
Jeff F.
This cave especially with the slate piece that is removable is phenomenal. There are so many things on the market and this does it’s job although it is tough to clean because it is realistic looking it is really the perfect peace for a bearded dragon enclosure, well done.
Jonathan B.
Great item looks good and nice size. Waiting till my snake gets a bit bigger will be showcase of the second half of her enclosure.
Valerie S.
Thanks to Randy and Scott Crawford, our beardie is 3 years now has never been happier. Not because of his awesome basking rock because of his amazing enclosure, also from Zen. Thank you so much for improving his quality of life.
Devin H.
Love this basking hide! It’s the third hide I’ve bought for Felix in the past 4 months and the only one he has used! He crawls into his cave and puts himself to bed every night
Heather C.
Excellent quality and looks beautiful in the Zen Habitat enclosure! Our beardie is frequently basking on it! Every beardie should have one!
Gary H.
My bearded dragon loves the big basking rock. And the cave is his favorite sleeping spot now.
Sandra H.
IT WOULD BE MUCH BETTER IF WE HAD THE GACE WE ORDERED TO PUT THE ROCK AND THE MAT WE ALREADY PAID AND WE ARE WATING FOR THE CAGE HOPE IT WILL COME SOON THEN WE CAN TELL YOU IF WE LIKE IT OR NOT HOPE TO HEAR FROM YOU SOON SANDRA WAGGIN TAILS
Susan S.
Great, as described.
Shawn S.
No complaints great basking spots retains the hear properly, and a great hide! One of the few hides that'll he able to fit an adult beardie for when this guy grows! And quality made product great for the price!
Lukas B.
When the cave came the first time the slate was broken. Zen gladly sent me a replacement which was great! The bottom is not level and the slate also does not sit level on the cave. My beardie seems to like it nonetheless.
Courtney R.
I won this in a giveaway and LET. ME. TELL. YOU. it is amazing! Had I heard of it before I would have purchased anyways! It is HUGE and I love the slate on top which is perfect for basking. This picture shows a 360 gram dragon on it and he is now over 400 grams and has plenty of room to grow with it! I was highly impressed from the structure to the packaging. Highly reccomend.
Ashley B.
He loves running inside his zen hide and he loves basking and laying right on top. It’s the perfect size as he grows he won’t run out of room.
Stephanie C.
My beardie loves this Zen cave! Highly recommend to anyone with a larger size dragon, fits perfectly in the 4x2x2 enclosure.
SHILOH H.
Finally a hide that's big enough for my dragons. Has awesome slate on top too to capture heat. My Bearded Dragons seem to like it a lot.
Kendra M.
This is a fantastic hide. Our dragon loves it and spends tons of time basking too.
Dusten H.
Leonard loves his cave!
Nicole B.
It's really nice and will be great in my future Zen Habitat enclosure (hoping to get it soon; still waiting).
Jason G.
My little guy loves his new Zen Cave!!! He climbs all over it, into it, and then repeats the process all day long.
Thanks Zen Habitats!!!
Ben C.

To u guys

The Zen cave has changed my beardie's life, quite literally. When I got him, he weighed 18g. I tried to get his habitat set up correctly but struggled to get the basking spot where he needed it. I finally broke down and bought the Zen cave. The slate top warms up nicely and maintains heat well and I went from struggling to get the basking temp up high enough, to having to put it on a dimmer to keep it from getting too hot. The first 5 weeks I had him, he didn't eat enough and didn't gain any weight. The first week he had the Zen cave, he went from 18g to 22g. The second week he jumped to 28g. He is alert and active, eating well and the weight gain says it all. This cave is pricier than alternatives from the box stores but is also way more substantial - it has definitely been worth the expense.
JILL N.
Excellent construction and well thought out basking piece for our bearded dragon. Thank you!
Melissa F.
This hide is super cool. The resin portion came cracked despite being well wrapped which is why this got 4 stars instead of 5.
Kimberlea B.
He's in it now! It warms up nicely. Finally got bulbs and emitter that will last. I'm in an old house and trying to keep him warm, and a couple thousand pinheads, 50 adult and 10 litters of dubias, 100's of mealworms and super worms.
Joshua F.
I love the profile and double duty of this hide. It’s definitely my skink’s favorite spot. My initial order was damaged but a replacement was sent right away. Zen Habitats have top notch customer support.
Chris B.
Olive loves her new Zen Cave. It is very well made and sturdy. She spends most of her day basking on the slate top which absorbs heat from the lamps but not so much heat that it would burn her. I was really amazed when it arrived at how large it was and how well constructed. She is only 13” long now, but there is plenty of room inside for when she is full grown.
Josh H.
Had a great experience getting this item! I would definitely get another one. The stone stay warm to the touch under the basking lamp
Brian W.
Our bearded dragon loves the zen cave. I’ve been looking for a large hide like this for awhile.
Kelsey
Received this item with a corner of the slab chipped off. Tried reaching out twice to get a replacement with no response.. still usable but super bummed that it came broken and I'll have to use it that way.. would be a 5 star review if not broken/received a replacement slab.
