    I've got a question for you guys then. Didn't want to bother starting a new thread.

    Since I joined this website, I've always been told that Cypress Mulch is the best substrate ever.

    Living in a dry city I've been struggling with humidity.

    I finally bought 3 bags on Amazon last month and this stuff is really moist.
    I didn't want to change out all her substrate cause most of it was still good and clean. So while I was feeding her I changed up the substrate for in her hide with this stuff.

    Do you think it would cause problems? Being a fairly damp substrate.

    My first impressions are extremely impressed. I put it in last night, and she had her first complete shed while I was at class today. (Which was weird because I thought she had already shed. She went pre-shed a week ago, and yesterday didn't look all dull and everything like they normally do when they're about to shed.)

    Edit:

    You have to be wary of cage feeding though. Your BP isn't going to mistake you for a rodent, if it can see you. But if it is used to snagging a curious rodent at the entrance of it's hide every time it eats, it might mistake your finger for a rodent if you go to lift it. Other than that, you're only going to get bit if they're stressed and want you to get outta their house.
