I like the sound of this http://i954.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/Mistress.gif

And yes Pine is fine but what do I know, I am not part of the great ones

Anyway now back to your regular programming with your own Spin off :gj:

My cornsnake thrive in pine, but my bp's are on paper... Mostly due to them (corns) being on display, since their needs aren't as delicate.

Hey, next time you're at the right hand of the guy who's supposed to be upstairs, tell him the hubris is a bit cloying, whouldja?

Assuming would mean I was guessing and had no knowledge or experience. Because I am educated and have the knowledge and experience I would be giving an educated opinion not an assumption.

Sorry that you read stupidly....your words, not mine.

I can go monosyllabic on future posts if it makes you read less stupidly. However you decide, I'll be glad to oblige.

Who's we?

Did you finally name your right hand?

Or is this the "royal" we?

Some salty people! Reading through this post was a waste of time but in all honesty that was my goal in the middle of the work day. I don't want to be part of the problem...(using the site for reasons it was not intended for)...but I can't lie

Brian Barczyk apparently recommends pine on his Twitter feed. For ball pythons no less! Did you ask me the BHB question because you had knowledge or were you making an ASSUmption?

Want me to ask some of the other "greats"?

Want me to ask if they've seen any scales rubbed off on hides because of pine?

Say "Reptile Carpet" for me.....one more time.

Tell me how good it is......

That was kind of funny.

The "royal" we, man!!!

Careful, there's a beverage here!!!

On a serious note, I thought coconut substrate wasn't ideal for BPs because it gets trapped in their labial pits??

Hehe... labia...

ANYONE who doesn't keep their BP's exclusively on indented kraft paper should be investigated for animal cruelty... Then all their snakes should be sent to me (at previous owners expense) for proper husbandry.
