What's the best substrate?

I've used CocoBlox... great stuff. The last batch I also bought in bulk... I only have 4 snakes, but just store the stuff in the shed, no biggie.

With that said, I find it to be pretty much the same as ReptiChip, so I always go with which I can find for cheapest.

Nikkibus, how do you compare CocoBlox with ReptiChip? You use more of it, so maybe you notice a difference. For me they seem the same.

The difference isn't huge by any means, but I think on average, CocoBlox tends to have much less medium to small pieces somehow. I'm not sure the difference in the process they use to make it vs ReptiChip and others. It's admittedly been several years since I've bought a bag of ReptiChip though, so it's also possible it's changed over time too. Another possibility is that since I'm closer to FB, the bags get a lot less beat up in shipping and what I'm saying doesn't even apply to people on the opposite side of the country, I didn't even think of that till just now. As tightly as they are both packed, I don't think that's what it is though.
