I use cypress mulch (double-milled is best), or shredded aspen, both of which are much better at holding humidity and warmth. They are also softer for the snakes to lay on (especially the aspen). I think they both smell pretty good. The aspen is easier to see poo on, especially if you've got a small snake that's making small poos. As was previously mentioned, you can buy these bulk for pretty cheap from pet stores, farm supply stores, and lawn and garden stores.

Good luck with your girl; that was a pretty sweet deal!
