Sayonara to Aspen...

[Ginevive]

I am really sick of using aspen. whenever I took my snakes out, they would coil around a small bit of it, and it'd get all over my house. I had aspen on my couch, and even lodged in the leg of my pair of pants. This caused much discomfort at a baby shower I recently attended.
I am now returning to newspaper. It ain't that pretty. But it does not have to be swept up on a daily basis, or get caught in the carpet and get painfully stepped on at three AM by your bare foot. Anyone else with me on this?

LOL, I've been in agreement with that all along. My new guy came in with substrate of pieces of corn cob about the size of really chunky kitty litter but no dust. It's looking like a good loose substrate alternative to me so far, as it's scoopable, dustless, odorless, non-pine/non-cedar, and doesn't stick to him at all when picked up.

I like my substrate like I like my women - attractive and moist

I got tired of Bark. I'm using reptile carpet now. Easier to clean and better for my darling.

[Smulkin]

Bah - your bark is worse than your bite.

[iceman25]

LOL! You okay today morning Smulkin?

[Smulkin]

Yeah - falling way behind in my caffeine consumption quota though, bro. It begged to be posted - though it really doesnt make a damn bit'o'sense. Can someone grab me a cuban coffee, por favor?

[iceman25]

I'm gonna go get me an expresso on my way to a work meeting

I like the reptibark and don't seem to have any trouble with it
When the bp soils it I change or should say scoop just like kitty litter then just replace area with a little clean. No mess No sweat
I have been debating maybe going to the carpet but every time I change anything in his tank he freaks for like a week

I have been using aspen bedding its cheap and i hardly read the news paper anyway and Jojo likes to push out some of the substrate from inside his hides. I got a 10lb bag for about 6 bucks at petsmart.
