    I believe pine and cedar to be dangerous to reptiles. The fumes can hurt them.

    Youd be wrong

    KD Pine is just fine

    Cedar is still bad though

    I use Sani Chips for most of my reptiles. The ones that need more humidity I use Eco Earth.

    Used to use cypress until we had a mites scare a few months back and switched to newspaper while treating for them. I've since struck with the newspaper because it seems a lot cleaner as I can't miss any mess and its free since my mom gets it delivered every day and gives me stacks and stacks.

    I'm currently using Aspen with a layer of paper towels under it for my new BP. My logic was that I'd be able to easily gather up the paper towel layer by the corners and wrap up the dirty aspen bedding to change it. We'll see how well this method works in a few days when I first try to clean my viv! I'm hoping it will function in the same way as a litter box liner, but it remains to be seen!

    ....and my eight year old daughter believes in the tooth fairy.

    Cedar is not recommended. There is nothing wrong with pine.

    I use coconut fiber it allows my bp to burrow if she feels like it.

    Well that depends.

    My GTP I like using bark chips.
    My Hognose I like using Eco-Earth so she can burrow.
    My BP I like cypress.

    So how do I answer? :confusd:
