I personally wouldn't. Bags of it are cheap enough at B&Q and you won't use a whole bag for one egg laying tub

Even if your snakes have been properly quarantined, it's still been used previously.

Just check it for mould before reusing it.
Although, iv read that mould doesnt usually harm a fertile egg, and in some cases weakens the egg making it easier for the hatchling to pip.
But then again, i wouldnt want mouldy eggs!

if it's mouldy then the obvious answer would be to not use that particular bit
