For anyone else looking for long, transparent ferret play tubes, here are links etc. I've found. I put them in two groups, normal and heavy-duty. The heavy-duty kind seem to be impossible for a ferret to damage and escape from, and people say they last for years -- one guy's had his in his shop 15 years, using under air pressure (within it) it to collect dust. Also ferret people use them to connect ferret living areas -- i.e., the tubing apparently doesn't have to be in a secure area as long as the connections are secure. I want Want WANT these heavy types, but they are quite expensive. FYI, at the end of the list, I put prices for the longest length by one company. ***Does anyone have sources of less expensive tubing of this type?*** (The list's not formal. Within groups there's no particular order, and the items in the list don't all have the same sorts of info, but you can find everything online.) ---------------------NORMAL and better ones:-------------------- http://www.newrainbowbridge.com/products/clear.htm $18 for 1st, $15 for additional ones. more discounts for more. 2 = $41 w ship to Calif (3 = $60?) ferret.com, Marshall 20' http://www.ferret.com/item/marshall-ferret-super-thru-way-tunnel/650727/ ferretdepot, Marshall 20' petsupplies, Marshall 20' <http://www.petsupplies.com/item/marshall-ferret-super-thru-way-tunnel/650727/> tarzan 3 20' = $54 +ship http://www.ebay.com/itm/380359771577 -------------------HEAVY-DUTY:------------------ http://www.tools-plus.com/woodstock-w2031.html $18 + 6.50 ship http://www.grizzly.com/products/4-x-10-Clear-Hose/H1052 <http://www.grizzly.com/products/4-x-10-Clear-Wire-Reinforced-Flexible-Hose/G3179> http://www.woodwerks.com/bluetube-c-52_258_857.html http://www.ptreeusa.com/dusthose.htm 381 4" x 50' Clear Super Flex Dust Collection Hose $69.99 1 = $80 w ship to Calif 2- $153 w ship to Calif 361 4" Wire Hose Clamp $1.25 [Posted in FML 7388]
