>>is "Carefresh" - perhaps because it holds heat/moisture. Regardless, our hisser colony is booming on it. It gets very humid, increasing the minimal smell of the roaches a bit, but hey, they love it so I'm not complaining. They did well on aspen as well. Whne you run our of chicken feed, just go head and feed them dog food. Ours do well, and it's got plenty of protein. A UTH will keep them nice and toasty, just check the temp. until it gets high enough for your sp[ecies.
For my small hisser colony I have them in spaghnum moss. It is very easy to mist and to layer and pull them out of. I haven't used it with the lobsters yet 'cause I think it will be harder to find them in it. I have a thin layer of shavings and they just stacked egg carton and paper towel tubes. So far, so good. The lobsters are making babies already. ----- Sonya
