yea thats what I have been told. but I feel that she can handle that substrate. I just want to make sure that it wont kill her. and I sure as hell am not going to ask petco. those guys are morons.

Looks like an ivory to me, still gorgeous and highly useful in any breeder's collection!

black eyeds are around 3-5k depending on sex and how much yellow is on the animal

ivories are anywhere from 1200-1800 depending on sex and how nice it is.

yea we have determined that it is in fact an ivory. i just cant change the title. if a moderator would be so kind as to change the title to "My New baby. Ivory Ball Python" i would appreciate it.
but as for the substrate question I am looking for a straight answer. I don't want to accidentally kill her if I decide to use it.

Never heard of that bedding being used for snakes.

I would not keep any snake or lizard on any such bedding myself. Especially anything that clumps.

Considering how much they urinate and how efficient they are at tipping their dishes.

I would not want to risk it personally. We know that certain types of wood are safe, as are paper sheets.
