    Substrate question

    I know about butcher paper as substrate, but will masking paper be safe?

    Short questions sorry.
    I own
    0.1 normal Padme
    1.0 normal (first snake) Cave Johnson
    0.1 het. pied Chell
    1.0 het. pied Wheatley
    1.0 Leopard gecko Muffin (given to me by my little sister, she named it)
    As you can see, I name my snakes after Portal and Star Wars characters.
    Soon (hopefully)

    1.0 cornsnake (or 0.1)

    Re: Substrate question

    Are you thinking of taping it down? I wouldn't bother. I use paper towels for mites and RIs but mainly use coco husk. Butcher paper won't absorb anything like paper towels do. They might absorb a little if water was spilled on it.

    I agree with phantomtip. I dont think it would absorb well at all. We use papertowels for our hatchlings and aspen for our adults.

    Re: Substrate question

    I am not asking if it's GOOD.
    I am asking if it's SAFE.
    Now, is it safe?
