I am getting very sick of aspen bedding, mainly because it gets everywhere in the house sticking to my feet.
I read that at least one member here used a bedding called Boxo and liked it, but did not elaborate further. It is made of recycled paper. I bought a bag as they were sold out of aspen put it in a few tubs for the past week and thus far it seems to do great.
I have not fed nor bred on them though, so I would like to ask if there are any problems associated with this. I know many experienced keepers here who feed on wood bedding no problem, and I do so too, but just wanted to see if paper based substrates are fine to consume, or if this "carefresh" like texture has a tendency to stick to hemipenes when everted.
I will add that I used to use paper PELLETS years ago with no issues for snakes.
