5.0 out of 5 stars Pretty good!

5.0 out of 5 stars The BEST reptile substrate
I have been using eco earth for awhile for my ball pythons and blue tongue skink. However, a few months back I attempted to use the zoo med forest floor bedding mixed with eco earth and all of my reptiles contracted mites from it that wouldn’t go away for months.This is the first substrate my reptiles have been put on since having a mite infestation and I cannot day enough good things about it. Since I have reptiles that need a higher humidity, this substrate was perfect! It held a very high humidity for about a WEEK after I put it into their enclosures! I now have to spray it about once a day in order to keep the humidity high enough, but that is still much less than I would have to do if my reptiles were still on eco earth. My reptiles absolutely love this bedding as do I. It provides a nice smell, great texture, and is not dusty. The substrate was very easy to expand as well and makes a LOT of product for a great price. I would spend much more on eco earth trying to fill all of my enclosures when this one block filled both of my 20 gallons, and my over five foot vision cage. I HIGHLY recommend this product to reptile keepers, especially if you struggle with keeping humidity up. This was my first time purchasing this and I will be buying this from now on!
5.0 out of 5 stars Corn snakes love this substrate
We used to use shredded paper and paper towels. How rude was that? Happy reptiles now.
5.0 out of 5 stars Hasn't ever let me down
Works great for my ball pythons. Holds enough moisture without molding, and rough enough for them to easily get their sheds off in one piece. If you're getting it for the first time it might not look like a whole lot but once you start breaking the block apart it expands a LOT. Some bags I've noticed can be pretty dusty so maybe take it apart somewhere with decent airflow or wear a mask to protect your lungs. Or be like me and deal with 5-10 minutes of non-stop sneezing and wheezing... (Don't be like me.)This stuff lasts me a good while, it's easy to clean, easy to store (I have a tote I bought from Walmart that holds it all just fine) it's chunks so it doesn't really stick to itself so if your snake likes to burrow this might not be up to their liking. I've personally never had an issue with any of my snakes eating it or getting hurt by it, no blockages or anything of the sort.
5.0 out of 5 stars I made the switch; it was worth it
I've had two ball pythons for a little over a year now, and switched from repti-soil and similar products to this. HUGE difference. It does exactly what it's supposed to do: retains heat, holds moisture, cleans easily, and one brick was enough for a 4x2x2 enclosure. I won't be going back to any other substrate.
4.0 out of 5 stars and the whole block was wasted. I would make sure to read the directions ...
This is a no nonsense product. Compressed coconut fiber to reduced wasteful forms of packaging, a single, semi-gloss sheet of paper to advertise it and some heavy duty plastic wrap to top it off. Sustainable? Yeah to an extent it is. I can't speak for this individual manufacturer but as an Agricultural Scientist by trade, I will say there are ways to make it sustainable.If we're to be honest, coconut husk is mold resistant but not mold PROOF (There is a difference, visit USDA.gov to learn more) Last block I bought I could not dry quickly enough, and the whole block was wasted.I would make sure to read the directions carefully. "Lightly spray" not, "Completely drench".Just enough to break stuff up. It requires a little elbow grease but someone who owns reptiles or any other animal that can live on this substrate should not be unfamiliar with a little work when cleaning cages properly.Is it clean? Yeah, it's not bad. When you break it up it will create dust. LOTS.LET'S BE HONEST, any naturalish substrate you buy will have dust. Nature of the material, unless you use sheets of heavy paper or paper towels.IS IT SAFE? Sure it is. Granted, some animals are more susceptible to subcutaneous inflammation (redness on surface of the skin) than others, so keep a careful watch. I have noticed my Reticulated Pythons exhibiting some inflammation after spraying their cages down in the morning and evening. With adjustments to water amount and heat, this can easily be resolved.As someone who has performed research with reptiles on a collegiate level I like this substrate. It does well but 8 times out of 10 you'll find any other brand of coconut husk to work just as well. But the compression, sustainability and eye for reducing costs of packaging just shows good business practice.Mainly why I buy it.....Also relatively inexpensive.
5.0 out of 5 stars Good stuff
Wish I used this stuff along time ago much better for my ball pythons no more dirt In there mouth. It holds humidity good. Size of chunks are perfect makes it easy to clean the enclosures. Made a lot for one brick was easy to break up just spray water here and there and mix it with your hands lightweight and has nice color
5.0 out of 5 stars Works great for tortoise and ball python
This stuff has a great smell and works well in both my kids terrarium. We have a red footed tortoise and a ball python. It soaks up their poop good and makes for easy cleaning. Very little dust remains when cleaning out the terrariums. Much cheaper than buying at the local reptile store. The bag is packed so tight and compacted that one of these will last you a long time. Will continue buying on Bolo for as long as we have the pets!
It's great

Mantiene muy bien la humedad
La estoy usando para el terrario de una piton bola y me ha funcionado muy bien
Good Substrate
A little expensive (though understandable given the quality) and rather slow delivery (though as it comes from the US rather than the UK, also understandable!) But all in all this stuff is great.I was able to make the batch up a couple days ago and after storing in a reasonably sized storage container, this stuff is said to last indefinitely and not mold as long as you mix it about every few days.It feels and smells extremely clean and isn't dusty, doesn't give splinters and is relatively simple to make though I'd advise having a 50L storage box on hand and making it all at the same time.No instructions on how much water to add but I've found if you tear open the bag and add the water straight into it that seems to work! Absorbs water AMAZINGLY and easy to control the amount of water you add too. I was worried that it would up the humidity in my corn snake vivarium to 100% (as I've used a different brand before that did so) but it was very easy to make it expand but also not be sopping wet.Also brilliant for ball python vivariums too (the reason I bought it in the first place) as you can add as much water as you need and it'll keep on absorbing.A lot of waffle in the end from me but if there's one take away, it's that this stuff is the good stuff and if the delivery wasn't so slow I'd probably make it my normal brand!

Supernöjd!
Good substrate, the breeder block is a good value
Breaks apart easily, even without using much water. Looks good in the tank, my corn snake seems to enjoy it. The breeder block was more than enough to fill my 72x18 tank a few inches deep.
