What does everyone use for substrate for their water dragons? I am planning on getting a baby one soon. I do not like to use like reptile carpet since i think it is a pain to clean and I would like the natural setting where they can dig and things and helps keep humidity up. I thought about using just topsoil sand mixture? I have heard bed a beast but dont really see it round my way all the brick stuff we have here is eco earth cocunut fider and like forest floor with the wood chips. What are peoples opinions and substrate choices?
