    Anyone use Aspen for Dumeril?
    Im sick of the cocofiber and decided to pick up some aspen to try. Anyone have any info or experience with aspen and boas?

    I thought Aspen was almost the most used substrate with Boa breeders?

    Cool, thanks! Ill be switching it this week. How is it for humidity? Does it need spraying every day?

    I went with aspen because I heard the Dum likes to burrow - and sure enough, my little girl is always buried in the stuff. I put in just over an inch of depth (she's just a yearling).

    I mist the enclosure because my setup is pretty dry. My girl makes piles up the aspen and then makes tunnels. I never know what the land scape is going to look like when I go in. :)

    Here is a pic i just took after switching it. He is still kinda unsure of it i think. I put a layer of newspaper under to make cleanup alot easier.He used to burrow in the cocofiber whenever i put fresh stuff in, the aspen seems alot better for burrowing so i think after a day or so he will like it.......i hope,lol.

    I use Aspen Sani-Chips for substrate.
