It was a question sorry for the confusion I havent thought about cypress is that the stuff called forest floor? It looks good if that is the right stuff I am thinking of the pieces always seem a bit large to me.

And just to clarify because I think one of the two of us missed something somewhere I only feed my BP f/t and have switched the boas to f/t even though I breed my own rats I also euthanize and vacuum seal and freeze them as well.
Haahahha! Yea, sorry for the confusion - I misread that! I think cypress mulch is not that forest floor stuff. The forest floor is finer and if I remember correctly, I tried it once and hated it - seemed very dirty. The cypress mulch is just like garden mulch (don't use garden mulch - it only looks the same, but its not really the same stuff). Some of the pieces seem big, but it really is softer than it looks. My balls did great on it for a long time and it was easy to clean. A lot of people use cypress mulch - it is a very good substrate.

Just wanted to be clear about the rats - not just with you, but for anyone else who might read the thread.
