esp. with kings or milks...seems the shavings causes respiratory issues....don't know if it's due to dust from the shavings,or that the shavings are too absorbent-thus dehydrating the snake and the air in its enclosure....and yes the paper is easy to lcean and repl....just throw in a few more hideboxes,etc. to compensate ..actually a few layers of newspaper seems just as good to my snakes as shavings they can burrow in,for security.
