Re: Reptile Prime, now with free shipping
I've used it since I saw his vlog on how it's made because I couldn't stand the cypress mulch and didn't want the hassle of soaking a block of bedding before I could use it.
LOVE the product for, as Zina said, reasons that have been discussed ad nauseam; Easy spot cleaning, Odor control, Burrowing, Holds humidity (50-95% depending on the snake) in my T10's very well without regular misting (I live in Western NY and do not have a humidifier in my house), Storage (resealable bag), VERY low dust, It's a renewable resource, and when I do clean out my enclosure I can just dump it in the back yard and it keeps the critters away from my garden (odor of snake I guess).
I agree, bumping the price and saying "free shipping" is a misleading business tactic used by many, but they need to cover costs and make money. More importantly, the price didn't change when his face went on the bag, nor did the shipping cost. I'll write Brian (yes, I've communicated with him through his personal e-mail) and mention the "$20.99 shipped" suggestion. I've been brutally honest with him in the past (his shenanigans with some of these youtube sensationalists) and he's been receptive. He was also very generous when I had a question about the Reptile Prime.
Most importantly.....if it works for you, use it - If it doesn't, don't. But if you disagree with who he is or how he keeps his animals, keep the focus on that and not the product line - and that's for a different forum altogether. Just my
