Substrata from Lowes
I'm wanting to change my substrata and I see cypress mulch and hardwood bark mulch. The bark looks like it might be better what do you think its shredded.

As long as there's no pesticides or fertilizers, I think it's okay. I would stay away from anything you don't know exactly what it is, though.

Went with the evergreen brand cypress mulch. I'm drying it a little in the sun before I put it in the tubs.

I've been looking for some mulch at home depot, but I could only find a cypress and pine blend :(

As for bulk substrate, has anyone tried reptile basics cypress mulch?

No but I do my most of my rept. Supply shopping from RB. Its hard to beat Lowes price of 2.73 for a 2 cu.ft. bag.

Re: Substrata from Lowes
I'd be really careful about this, guys. Cypress mulch is often mixed with other woods, including pine. And it's not like they are required to list the ingredients or anything. If it isn't sold as pet safe, I wouldn't consider using it myself.
