Hmmm, actually come to think of it - lignocel is great if you have several snakes in large enclosures (and it's fine for other pets such as hamsters etc), but 3 little ones and a bag will probably last you forever lol! This is the link if you want to check it out anyway ;) http://www.wildworldreptileshop.co.uk/lignocel-12-5kg/ Much softer than aspen, smells nice (I hate the smell of beech chips) and one bag has lasted me ages already!

Thanks that's what I use in my bearded dragons viv's. I like the aspen as it does look soft for them and they do like to go under and sleep.

I use beech chips currently, but when mine was young it just had newspaper.
