    is eco earth good to use with UTH?

    i just put it under the tank and she seems to be good. but my BF just mentioned the pamphlet and didnt mention ecoearth but its also not by zoomed. so would make sense they wouldn't mention it, but she seems fine and eats great and i know the humidity is good and temps are right.

    and she doesnt burrow down closer to the pad so im guessing she'll be ok....


    w/u guys think?

    To answer your question, Eco Earth is good to use with UTH. As a matter of fact, my daughter uses it in her Leopard gecko enclosure. But if you're asking about using it in a Ball Python's enclosure, I think you can find a better substrate. Aspen or newspaper would be better for a Ball Python. No facts to back it up, just my personal opinioin.

    The eco earth may be better at managing humidity if that is a problem, otherwise, I agree with JH in saying that aspen or paper may be better.
