Sorry I upset you buddy.
Jimi, no one was tearing anyone apart so let's take that down a notch and pick less inflamatory words. When someone posts a pic or a post of course others will comment, that's just the way of the things and especially if they see anything of concern. That can be a touchy thing occasionally but it also is part of what makes us a very caring, concerned community.

I saw it happen many times at the petstore i worked at. It is easy to see how he might have been led in the wrong direction, with all those -speaks sarcastically- "experts" out there at the pet stores lol!!! Any way, catzeye, you made the right move by joining this forum!!! When it comes to help and assistance with BP's, this forum is the best...you won't be dissappointed!
So corncob isn't an ok litter for snakes? Thanks lol. I own a few guinea pigs (as pets not food! lol) and I am apart of a few guinea pig forums and I know a lot about them so I figured, why not join a cat forum, a snake forum, and a budgie forum. ^_^ I want to learn all about my pets.

Nah, If you want my honest opion, it pretty much sucks for snakes. Holds no humidity, and if it gets wet, it gets moldy super fast. If you shop at a petstore, and want to get somthin' much better for your guy, forest bed,that mulchy stuff(forget what its called), or aspen all work great. the latter is also more cost effective. If you've got the money to spend, I'd say go for the mulchy stuff:gj: ...oh and you should definately put an acu-rite thermometer/humidity gage on your shopping list too(you can get tis at WalMart for $12)....you can't go wrong with one of those! good luck with da li'l feller.

Hehe...which stuff? Bed-a-beast and Eco-earth are both compressed coconut husks. Cypress mulch is something else entirely. But it's all good for snakes!
