This is softer than reptibark and holds humidity really well. I've used it with my BPs for years.

    Also, just don't leave a LIVE rat in overnight with your snakes (or for any length of time unattended). I only leave f/t rodents in the tubs. Just wanted that to be clear.
    Awesome to hear. Would you consider reptibark a safe subatrate?
    It was a question sorry for the confusion I havent thought about cypress is that the stuff called forest floor? It looks good if that is the right stuff I am thinking of the pieces always seem a bit large to me.

    And just to clarify because I think one of the two of us missed something somewhere I only feed my BP f/t and have switched the boas to f/t even though I breed my own rats I also euthanize and vacuum seal and freeze them as well.
