Bio-active Substrate | Gecko Time

Just found this and they use top soil with sand from the beach.

What will you be using it for? For the ball id suggest DEEP burrowable substrate. coco fiber and bark cant hold strong burrows. And i believe play sand is sand from the beach.

I want to try and do it for both my boas and the ball. Any specific recommendations for both?

From my understanding of bci's is there not burrowers there are often found in trees though that doesnt mean they wont hide in a burrow thats already made by something else. So i guess mixing sand/soil until it looks right to you would be the best way to go and top it off with leaf litter. i didn't use bio-active substrate when i had my boas so im not to sure what they would prefer but i would definitely take that rout now if i had them.
