Re: Some dumb jerk got tagged doing sometihng dumb
I just got finished writing a reply and for some reason this only takes about half of them that I write. Anyways I do feel the substrate helps with humidity in my cages. I live in California and it is very dry here. I also have two large water dishes in each cage. I try to keep the humidity at 60 to 70 percent so I don't have to worry about my kids while I am gone all day. It really seems to help with the shed.
As far as the substrate plugging them off, I do worry, I would hate to lose a 1000 dollar animal for that reason, not just for the money but because they are part of the family. Also the cypress makes it look good and it is easier for me to clean a handful of cypress and wash a small spot then to change 6 cages of news paper. I don't think I want to clean that hard clue off the bare floor of the cage either. My wife is very tolerant and would tell me the snakes or her if they ever started looking bad, and I would miss the hell out of my wife. So bottom line, I will use the cypress for as long as I can get it. It is only 19 bucks for 40 quarts that isn't too bad.
