Repti-zorb cage liners (a review)

[Royal Hijinx]

I have been using the Repti-zorb cage liners (from Superior Shipping Supplies) for a few months now, so time to review them.

Previously I was using indented craft paper liners, but the shipping from the east coast was not making it worth it. When visiting Raul from West Coast Jungle to pick up my Enchi girl, he showed me the Repti-zorbs. I emailed Scott, and the rest is history.

Here is a comparison shot of the two.


Here is what a stack of them looks like.



The Repti-zorbs are made from a fabric and feel like very thick paper. What is really nice here is the absorbency. I found with paper that a large urination or a tipping of the water bowl would leave the snake sitting in water. With these, the spills are contained. This is nice if it is a a day or so before you have a chance to change it out. Also, they are very strong. If a snake tips a water bowl, I can remove the wet liner and let it dry to re-use, and do not have to worry about it tearing. And, it does not tear when removing it while wet.

Here is a pic of a liner after a pretty large urination. Snake is nice and dry.



Here is another pic of it set up in my Boaphile rack. These tubs are an odd size, but scott had no problem custom cutting them for me.

Overall, I am very happy with them, and have switched on all of my racks. I do kinda wish they came in a cream or grey color, as the white is pretty bright. As for cost, they are reasonable for the size of my collection (16 BPs), and I am sure the price drops the more you order.

Never heard of them. What is the cost?

Depends on the size and quantity. In my case 30-40 cents each.

I have been looking for something exactly like these liners, and I definitely appreciated your review, but they are fairly cost-prohibitive for me. I can buy a 2-3 month supply of aspen or sani-chips for around $40 including shipping. ordering enough liners to make it worthwhile for all my racks was approaching $150 before shipping. I'll probably give them a shot at some point, but staying with aspen for now.

I know this is an old thread, but I was wondering if you are still using the repti-zorb liners. I was thinking about switching from newspaper.
