Most keepers use newspaper, but what else is good and won't harm the snakes? I've been raising a bunch of morphs on newspaper and tired of seeing them in it. I can feed them in separate containers. I have bottom heat in the back, but they're outgrowing baby tubs. Also do they really need the heat when room temps in the 70's? If it gets colder, won't offer food anyway.

Thanks, mike

We use Aspen. Some people use Sani-chips also. Bottom heat helps with digestion. I think 70's is the low end of a good range. Our tubs are 80 in the front and 90 in the back.
