It works well for snakes from megahumid/swampy areas (like bloods) and like to burrow. A lot harder to spot clean and will certainly up your maintenance routine a couple notches. If you DO use it make SURE you have some sort of heat baffle at the bottom of your enclosure or your snake will burrow down below it and could easily get belly burned. Feeding is also tricky since the fibers are long and easily snagged onto the prey (claws etc) - I wouldn't feed on it. What kind of snake were you thinking of putting on this?

I got some awesome stuff at a great price here http://www.mosserlee.com/products/lfsm.html


It was the third or fourth source I had tried seeing as how buying it in pet store is astronomically overpriced. GREAT for high-humidity needin' snakes like bloods. A lot of other stuff I wound up with had way too many stems - I snagged the 2 cu ft bag for $17 ordering by phone. Nice as hell folks to boot.
