But for ground level hides you could cut a terracotta flower pot in half. Use a terracotta garlic pot. Use half a coconut shell, use a piece of cork bark & simply make a slight hollow under it, in the substrate. Use an arch of cork bark, that looks similar to the wooden hide you currently have.  Use a commercially made hide or be creative. I use all of the above, including cork bark tubes. I also like to glue artificial trailing plants to my bark tubes, to give plenty of cover. The more cover your T feels it has, the more likely it is to run for that rather than freedom, when the lid is off.</blockquote>
