    JUST KIDDING! I would never ever use those...

    I use coconut husk, and it's awesome. I would like to get some aspen though. Seems good.

    Why not pine ever?

    Not unless you were certain it's kiln dried and trust the manufacturer.

    Mine is paper towel, newspaper, and aspen.

    Kiln dried pine is fine. And most wood beddings that are processed are kiln dried any way.

    Thank you all for the input. Quite obviously, there are many ways to keep the BP successfully. I will definitely start to experiment and see what works best for me, especially given some recent shedding problems with one snake.

    Since I live in South California, we don't get any humidity. Coco husk gives my terrarium the perfect humidity.
