Im not sure if this is your first snake or if you just recently got it but if it is Id throw down some paper for a couple weeks so you get an idea of how much these animals poop n pee. Although the bedding looks nice its a pain to get it clean... u can spot clean but thats pretty much only for poop n the solid urates... all the other liquid crap that does come out and you cant see... will be chillen in the snakes cage until you change the bedding. I supported the whole "display" cage when I got my first snake... but after seing them sleeping all day I realized hey theres not really much to display.
I currently have 4 snakes, the oldest I have had for 4 years. When you are an night owl like me, display tanks make perfect sense. I am up several hours after they come out of their hides to play!

I think I am going to try Mulch because it is very good looking and costs $2 bucks for a BIG bag. Considerably cheaper than all the other display type stuff.... As long as I make it bug free, i figure it should be the best looking, most cost effective, good for the snakes option. Just wanted to see if there is somehting I am not considering....
