    Re: EcoEarth Substrate

    There are better humidifiers out there then the cheap repti-foggers. some of the commercial ones at wallgreens and such work great, hold more water and don't usually need to much modifying to work it into your enclosure. EcoEarth does a good job holding humidity but does get everywhere after when dry(which happens rather quickly over the hot spot) I use it for my Crestie since his cage stays a little more humd and there is no heat source but I used cypress mulch for my BP's and it doesn't really stick to the feeders(currently using paper towels for my rack).

    Somthing I tried that worked pretty good was I got a sterilite container a couple inches high; about the dimensions of a sheet of paper L X W, and fill it with damp eco earth and sphagnum moss mixture then pour about a half inch of water in it and put it under/over the heat source. it usually lasts a few days before it starts to dry out and gives your snake a place to lay on thats not completely wet, baisically a moist hide without a top to boost humidity in the cage. draw back is they usually use it as a toilet and shed in it so your changing/cleaning it pretty often.
