aspen or repti bark? which is "hotter"

I have used both, I think the repti bark holds humidity better when misted, but does not conduct the heat well. Plus I hate cleaning the repti bark when I have to do spot cleaning between major tear downs, and I hate the redish color it leaves on my snakes too. However, I love the aspen, I too have to fluff it here and there because yes, thier slithering kinda tramples it down, but it dont leave red on my snakes, is easier to spot clean, and the way it holds heat is better all around. It is also visually pleasing (IMO), if thats important to you, for me, no it is not important, function of the product is the most important factor for me when buying.

Naaa ... I think the bottom feeders out there have the market cornered on stuff like that ... between the balls soaked in cool-aid to the $450 "pastels" that are browner than my non-genetic high golds, I'm sure it won't be long before they start advertising "comic balls" ... LOL

You have no idea! ... There is soooo much shady stuff that goes on out there ... especially for snakes at shows ... waxing, tubing full of fluids, soaking in kool-aid, or other colored liquid ... the list goes on and on.

In this business, you really do get what you pay for.
