I used to until my mother got hold of the bag I had placed his carpet in until I could clean it that evening. I had changed it that morning and of course it stinks when you change it. She had never been around a reptile and didn't realize that's what their waste smells like. She threw the carpet away, costing me quite a bit for that one little piece. I had bought a large piece that fits into a larger sized enclosure and cut it into three pieces for his enclosure. She threw two of the three away. When I upgraded his size, it took two to cover. I had started using paper towels to accomodate for the missing piece, now I just use paper towels. He likes that alot better, or at least he seems to. When he first learned about it, he was quite cute. He would move around really slowly scratching his belly on it, similiar to how he does when he's getting ready to shed. Cute.
