Hey guys,
I was reading my Boa book and there it says potting compost( without perlite) makes a good, natural substrate.
Have you heard of this or even better used it? |

just be careful some composts come with plant food granular mixed into them |

yeh it worked really well,easy to clean,dont smell,i dryed mine out for oscur,but it is good at holding moisture.If i remember right it did stain her belly after a few years. I went to it because i used corn cob,which beardy ate,and vet adviced me of this.She lived for 14 years on it quite happy. Im 36-7 now and i was 24 when she died so it was some years ago. |

cheers black,
Its supposed to absorb odor and liquid plus of course give the natual appearance that I prefer.
It might be worth a try :) |
