    Thanks :)

    I order my stuff from National pet Pharmacy... They sell 2.2 cu ft bags and up till 50 lb they have flat rate for shipping.

    My rack suppose came in the middle of the week so I gonna have plenty time to adjust temp and humidity before i gonna get my babies :D

    Thanks everybody for all votes and comments!!!

    I voted other but I don't know if what I use would be considered other. I used sanichips which are made of aspen.

    I use cypress mulch. It's pretty plentiful in the south and everyone says when it comes to humidity it's the best.


    I am considering paper towels though. I'm barely using a quarter to half an inch and my temperatures are erratic even on the side controlled by a thermostat.

Probably the easiest to clean and most comfortable bedding. Cheap also.

    EDIT - in my ball pythons tank I use cocnut fibre for a more natural look, but for racks go for carefresh.

    i dont know one person ( other than you apperantly lol ) that uses carefresh for snakes. for balls most people go with aspen or newspaper, some people use sani chips, but i think those are aspen too?

    i use newspaper in the racks, easy to change, fits pretty well the way i get it, and its free. plus they can still hide under it if they want
