Care fresh for substrate!

Hey,i just wanted to give a heads up on this bedding/substrate called care fresh. It is amazing! it holds humidity well and is easy to clean and none toxic.Care fresh is just a bit on the pricey side compared to aspen. I know some people get torn between using aspen,paper towel or wood type substrates because of all there cons like with the wood type substrates like repti bark or cypress it hold humidity well but can easily attract mites and with aspen it can sometime get a bit dusty or not hold humidity to well. With care fresh it hold humidity ad does not attract mites and is really easy to clean. Just do not feed your snake in the enclosure with it.Care fresh is also environment friendly :)! here is a pic of it

Just thought i share this with you guys who are looking for a good substrate!

I used that stuff for a while when I tried to breed some mice. It seemed to work pretty well. Seriously too pricey for me. I like the free newspaper that shows up on my front yard every Wednesday and Sunday. :D Only con for me is it stains up my albino pretty good.

ha ha seriously this stuff is a bit pricey compared to the other substrates i can use but it is worth it.:)

You could always try unprinted newspaper to solve that problem!

I used to use Care fresh with all my boas and it worked great. Only problem is it started getting expencive and every time I took them out it would make quite a mess. Other than that it worked great. I use cageliners from cageliners.net now and I really like it.:gj:

Yeah care fresh is great, i wont lie i pay about 21bucks for a big bag so yeah it gets pricey lol, and those cage liners actually caught my attention they seem to be pretty cheap and good (just how i like lol:D), i will use those when i get my burm at the upcoming expo prob.

I'm guessing I'd have to BUY unprinted newspaper and it wouldn't be free! Seriously though, where's the best place to find some of that?

You could try any local newspaper printers. They usually have some left over on the roll and I think they just toss it out, so you could likely get it for free.

Another thing you can use is butchers paper , i use it in all my feeding bins i buy it from the local deli at about $5 a roll but i think it would make a pretty decent substrate it is just like un printed news paper
