Loose eco earth coconut fibe

[MD_Pythons]

I use eco earth for my bp, works good for humidity but it quite messy. It's looseness is concerning to me (,mostly when feeding ) so I might try something else.

The best part about coconut fiber is when your adult male ball python gets a chunk stuck in his teeth and flails around like a baby so you try and be a good mom and grab him by the neck and yank it out only to realize he has somehow developed the strength of 10 snakes and you have to let go because it is either his neck or your arm that is coming off. I have had one heck of a week with these snakes I am exhausted!

Edit: true story, I wish it wasn't but right now Dante is hiding like I stole his favorite candy.

They all ate like clockwork last night too... good husbandry equals happy snakes.

I personally switched to Reptichip about a year ago and haven't looked back. Their substrate has been amazing. It's really soft, looks excellent compared to the store bought stuff and yields a lot of substrate for the cost of about 20$ a brick. Typically i pick it up at reptile shows here in the midwest but you can also order it.

So I tried the loose eco-earth coconut fiber for the first time and I love it! I am going to try next mixing the coconut fiber with the coco soft coconut husk mulch next. I will definitely be using the eco-earth from now on, on a couple layers of newspaper. Eco-earth ground coconut shell
Is amazing! Highly recommended

Pro-tip... agitate the substrate every so often if it is damp at all when you put it in. Keep the moisture from accumulating at the bottom and helps dry it to the point of it being safe for a ball python.

I've settled on Eco-earth loose coconut fiber as the best. I like the earthy texture vs. the mulch. I don't like the mulch chunks. I will be using eco-earth and paper from now on. (after I use up the rest of the coco husk mulch, blended with the eco-earth)

I like it too, but I think I'm going to try another substrate it's rather messy lol.
