    Reptile Cannabis Bedding?

    Long time no see!

    Hey, So I'm thinking about changing my ball to a more appealing substrate than paper towels which I have kept him with for 2 years now, the time has flew by feels like I only joined this site yesterday!

    So yeah.. I was just wondering on the opinions on this? it can be digested, Just looking for a safe and effective substrate that also looks quite nice, as I have purchased a Walnut vivarium.. and do not think paper towels would make it too appealing.

    Many Thanks

    The Substrate:

    Anybody had any experience with these at all or ever heard of them?

    Any input would be very appreciated!

    Never heard of it but based on the description it looks better suited for turtles and bearded dragons. Also appears quite absorbent which could bring your humidity down which would be bad.

    Perhaps someone will chime in but if they don't then there's your answer.
    Cheers, Jeff

    No need to reinvent the wheel. there are a lot of substrates that are already being used. The top 2 are probably Aspen and coconut husk. Both are available in chips, which I find the best.

    Ball pythons are already not very active, so do you really want them getting stoned too? On the plus side, you may find success putting picky eaters on this substrate and watch them pound rats, twinkies, or whatever else you put in front of them.
