It makes a fine medium for incubation, but I don't think I'd consider it for substrate for any snake.
I would research it to find out what chemicals are in it.. I believe I read somewhere that says it has some cancer causing agents in it, which would not make for a great bedding. Of course I could be wrong so just find out from a manufacturer.
