Red face Thick Branches...?

I'm really struggling finding thick branches to put in my new viv. I'm after really robust ones and for some reason just keep coming across these flexi-branch things that look a bit on the thin side...
The branches are for a tree frog and I want quite robust ones...
Can anyone suggest anywhere I can buy these from? My searches aren't returning anything that looks sturdy enough!

Thanks!!

Try your local forest !

You can use outside wood just gotta clean it correctly...

1) Bath in a weak bleach solution for 24 hrs, giving it a scrub down to remove all the crap.
2) Soak it down again to remove ALL the bleach
3) Leave it out to dry, done
