Need help with substrate options

[Mr_BoaJangles]

I use Jungle Mix in both my BP and my RTB cages. Keeps the humidity right where I want it with out any misting. I only mist for sheds. When you put it in make sure the top of the tank (screen) is not covered so some of the mostuire can escape other wise your humidity will be around 90%.

I use shredded paper, from junk mail, pay a bill and shred it, kids bring home lots of stuff from school, all the paper junk you would normally throw away, shred it... Bedding and cheap... Works well and its cheap... did i mention its cheap. I have been shredding and using as bedding for a year now, and the person that gave me the idea has been using it for years......

He switched to Cypress

Is diamond soft the bleached wood substrate? I have never used it myself. I believe it is a bit more expensive than other types, but does look very nice. IIRC, Ben Renick uses it. http://www.benrenick.com/ If so, he would be able to give you better info.
