Posted by: panhead at Sun May 24 12:29:47 2009 [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by panhead ] I have to agree with Brad on this one. Many, many years ago aspen was not readily available as a reptile subsrate. Back then I primarily used pine as most others did as well. The only major problem I had with pine was back in the early 80's when I had a lot of baby snakes in small containers within a larger cage that were on pine. A lot of them tipped the water dishes and the aroma/odor from the pine was really high. I lost a few snakes and some others seemed to develop neurological problems. After a few days on paper towels and in better vented enclosures they came around and were fine. I still use pine on all of our rodents, both breeders & resale. I believe pine would be fine in a very arid/open enclosure but not in one that requires higher humidity. | ||
