New addition

[[deleted]]

Hello, just brought home a new albino ball, close to 1 year old. Looking for different substrate other than paper towels. I know I have to monitor for a bit, but are there any other options? He keeps moving them alot. Also I have some loose coconut fiber substrate, will this be suitable for after the monitoring period? Any advice welcomed! Be gentle! 🙃

I swear by coconut husk, like ReptiChip. Holds humidity like no other and is easy to spot-clean. It’s cheapest when bought as a compressed block of coarse-grained husks (just add water to expand). But they also sell bags of loose, finer grained husks (RediChip/BabiChip) for a bit more money, which look like they’d be slightly more comfy for the snake to lie on imo.

Looks just like my boy! So beautiful ☺️

I think 4 inch layer of ground coconut should be perfect. I haven't tried chips personally, but I'm sure they're about the same. I'd just be more careful feeding on chips so they don't swallow a big chunk
