So just a caution, just in case that can pull of scales and what not.

I use aspen, holds humidity well and is easy to spot clean. I absolutely hated cleaning up paper towels then cleaning down the whole tub. Especially with a 4 foot, large-pooping snake.
Yeah, thats when I made the big switch. Once I noticed my big girls smelling up my room because they were sitting in there own pee for half a day, I got rid of the newspaper. I don't understand how people deal with that. Everyone says its sooo easy to clean, but when they soil it you have to change the paper, and clean the whole tub. I spot clean daily and having to clean tubs all the time is annoying. I like just scooping out the mess, and throwing it out, done.
