A few general observations of Aspen. I read online that Aspen dust "causes cancer" but only in the state of California. So on my way home I stopped and looked at the reptile bags of Aspen say the same warning as my hamster bag of Aspen.
Light weight and 100% dry is far less dusty than Reptichip when it drys. It's very light and fluffy so I'm curious how much will end up in the water dish.
Visually, I hate the way the snakes look on it. You don't get that beautiful stark contrast that makes the snakes burst with the lights on.
I moved Gene's water dish far to the cool side. To keep the humidity as far down as I can. The basement is at a minimum humidity of like 60% even with the dehumidifier on. Gene just sinks to the floor even with the litter dam maxed out with Aspen. He was unsure in it at first but slowly put is body in it. He has been all over his enclosure for the last 2 hours. Guessing he's just adjusting.
Tina like usual just loved it. Dug around for a while then went to her hide.
Looking forward to see how it will hold up. Worried about finding pre and pop because it will blend in more.
Ps. I did but Gene's hide back in, thermometers and his logs. He also didn't seem fazed chilling in Tina's enclosure for 2 hours.
