I wouldn't do the pine just because the oils from the pine are just as harmful to the snakes as if they ate injest it. I use aspen for my racks but hate it (messy and stinky), for my big cage I use reptibark and love that, but it doesn't make much sense to use in the racks. I put my WC girl on cypress mulch and like that much better than the aspen, but it's harder to spot clean and every time I take her out she's covered in dirt. When my huge bag-o-aspen is gone, I think I'm going to switch to cypress in my racks just to see how that works. since I use the aspen in my rodent rack, I'll still have the aspen to switch back to if the cypress doesn't work for me (or the snakes). Hope this helps.
