thanks.

THE BEST BEDDING FOR A COLOMBIAN BOA IS NEWSPAPER.I USE NEWSPAPER BECAUSE IT'S ABSORBANT,STERILE,MOST IMPORTANT OF ALL IT'S FREE.IF YOU LIKE TO DECORATE YOUR CAGE I RECCOMEND USING NEWSPAPER FOR SUBSTRATE AND CORK BARK FOR HIDE BOXES.YOU WILL EVENTUALLY HAVE TO THROW AWAY THE CORK BARK SINCE IT CAN'T BE CLEANED.I USE BOXES AS HIDE BOXES.I CUT THEM TO HEIGHT OF MY SNAKE,3 INCHES OR SO AND CUT HOLES IN THE SIDES FOR A DOOR.AGAIN THEY ARE FREE.SOMETIMES I WOULD ADD SOME PLASTIC DURABLE PLANTS THAT YOU COULD BUY AT A PET STORE.I SOAK THEM IN A MILD BLEACH WATER/SOLUTION AND RINSE WELL.MY LATEST THING IS NOLVASAN IN A SQUIRT BOTTLE.NOLVASAN IS A ANTI BACTERIAL THAT IS SAFE FOR YOUR PETS AND CONTINUES TO KILL BACTERIA.ANYWAY THAT'S JUST MY OPPINION.GOOD LUCK AND HAPPY HERP'N
