Bedding....

What do you guys think of carefresh as bedding for your snake. I usually just use paper, but i'm tired of looking at it.
Thanks

I've used carefresh. I like it better than newspaper. I now use aspen. I used pine for several years with no problem, but hear it can be bad for snakes so its aspen for now. I think you will like the carefresh better than the newspaper and your boas will too.

suggestions..

carefree was said to have too much dust and such.. and when wet by the 'puddle' a big snake leaves behind, it turns to soup.. making cleanup much worse...

one of the best looking, cleanest, easiest to spot clean, and easiest to maintain is probably shredded aspen.

one of the cleanest, neatest, easiest, prettiest would be cage liners that some companys out there make and sell.
some of it seems expansive, but it is WELL, WELL worth it...

I went from using nothing but newspaper to using nothing but cage liners... in all my Boaphiles..

Email me directly and i'll let you know where to get it cheap.
