About Snake hide
"Scaly but not slimy! It could be a useful material if it were tanned."
Snake hide is a members crafting material dropped by bush snakes, hoop snakes, and Mos Le'Harmless snakes, as well as obtained from Temple Trekking. Tanned for 15 coins (25 in Canifis) into snakeskin, the resulting material crafts snakeskin armour at 45+ Crafting. A 78 Magic spell can mass-tan up to five hides per cast.

Trading Tips
Tan-to-armour profit live when snakeskin armour outpaces hide+tan cost
Mass-tan via spell scales the margin when raw hides dip below the tanned floor
