    I have used it before but I like papertowls better! I would change when anyone deficated or they got too wet from spraying or something like that.

    i use unprinted newspaper. i called my local newspaper inquiring, and they told me they have "butt rolls" which are the end of the newsprint rolls that they don't use. took four home for free, tons of blank newsprint.

    I don't understand why you let the snake go for 4 days without fresh water? Maybe I'm not reading it correctly....

    yea, i just didn't change the paper. water is changed daily.


    anyway, thanks for the input guys
