you can easily find all that on this site. either use the search or go into the forums and go to the asf forum. browse around there and you'll find your answers.

Please do not post those in this forum, but instead use the For Sale/Trade/Adoption or Wanted forum instead.

of course no problem- sorry for posting in the wrong forms

I would recomend you to get them from someone that breed thems in their home/where they keep their snakes. I bought mine from a vendor and they were scared for their lives.

They did settle down some and they dont mind me as much as they used to, but they are still somewhat terrified of me. I cant hold them, they try to scape and very scared. I waiting for them to give birth so I can raise my own.

I would use pine as its cheap and keeps the smells down. I know they stink less on aspen then cypress mulch (had no aspen) and less on pine then aspen. So i'd imagine newspaper would be worse.

yeah ill just go with pine, but i think for now ill go with regular rats
