    End rolls of Newsprint

    I have called all my local newspapers and they all say they don't sell the end rolls of newsprint anymore. My question for you all is have you guys had any luck obtaining them? Or have any ideas for me to get some?

    I ran into the same problem, and just ended up using regular newspaper. Doesn't seen to affect mine at all and I've never noticed the print rubbing off on them. Probably depends on what newspaper though.

    Re: End rolls of Newsprint

    I use rolls of plain brown paper I bought from Lowe's. It was like 5.99 a roll if i remember. No print and it looks the same as newspaper, only brown.

    I just found a place outside of my city. It is a small printing company and it took me forever to find a place that would let me take them. I ended up with 4 huge rolls and I didn't even take all the ones there. It will probably last me 4 years haha!!!

    I too use regular newspapers. I have also had no problems with the ink making my snakes look "dirty"
