    Best substrate for a burm?

    What type of substrate is best for a burm?? I have seen care sheets that reccomend almost everything, from newspaper to aspen to orchid bark-type wood products.

    But what really works for the keeper and snake??

    I myself am not really fond of newspaper, especially since it would mean I'd have to subscribe to our cities stupid liberal rag.

    I use paper towel for all my babies cages and then switch to newspaper once they get into their bigger cages
