Empty contents of aspen bedding into your terrarium. Spread bedding over the entire bottom of terrarium for a minimum 2" depth. With very large, heavy snakes, you may need up to 4" depth.
Clean water should be provided at all times. Provide a water dish that allows enough room for your snake to coil up in, taking care to avoid a situation where overflowing occurs when snake is submerged.
We recommend feeding your snake in a separate feeding container. This prevents them from accidentally ingesting the substrate, resulting in impaction.
Clean habitat daily and remove any stool or other waste. If an offensive odor persists, replace all bedding. Zoo Med recommends replacing all Aspen snake bedding every two to three months or more often if needed.

So far, so good
By crate on Jul 4, 2020
Ordered 2 bags of this. Was getting tired of the coco fiber and coco husk stuff. I breed Ball Pythons, and keep them in rack tubs, have 24, so far. I can easily control humidity without having to mist or anything. So, as long as I can keep them from dumping their water bowls, I wont have a mold problem. But, as for defecation cleaning, it's good. I wear rubber gloves, just pick up the feces, or the area around the urine, and chunk it, and replace just what you threw out. So, it's some pretty good stuff, overall.

Wish I'd tried Aspen Snake Bedding years ago, love it!
By cookie888 on May 30, 2020
I love the Aspen Snake Bedding. I've always used sand for my Western Hognose, to create a desert landscape, but the Aspen is perfect. My snakes love it. They are a tunneling snake, and the Aspen holds up to tunneling, and keeps the tunnels intact. It looks tidy, and nice. Its very easy to clean. I wish I'd tried this years ago, and I am very happy to have found it now. Its a great substrate, light weight, and cost effective. I am, and my snakes are, very happy with the Aspen Snake Bedding.

Snake beding
By Dawn on May 10, 2020
My snake loves this beding. She loves checking it out, and she goes all over it, on the first day of tank cleaning day. I love it when she gets excited.

Save money buy from chewy
By NexGenKen on Feb 20, 2020
The exact item will cost you double if not more bought anywhere else. (Review more on price than product since it is what it is.) Blows my mind how these pet stores try to double their money. Chewy is amazing about having the best price in town and this item is a proven fact of that

Alright for hedgehog
By Phoebe on Feb 10, 2020
This bedding is nicer than the poofy small mammal bedding because it doesn't get moldy if it gets wet however, would prefer the aspen shavings than this bedding because this ones finer and gets between my hedgehogs quils easier.
