Hi All,

At the moment i am just looking into setting up an adult Viv for Smokey. i am thinking of getting the large Vivexotic Viva Terrestrial Vivarium i was thinking of using reptile carpets instead of aspen? as i think it will be easier and not get it all over the house lol does any one use the carpets are they easy to clean etc? what;s people thoughts? I know he liks to dig around in his aspen now but will he still want to do this when he is an adult? cheers for any info guys.

I use reptile carpet, it is a pain taking every thing out to remove the carpet! Plus side is they are easy to wash and dry really quickly and wear really well. The down side is that the snakes can't burrow although my two do sit under it. I have thought about once they reach adult size putting them on repticard but for the time being they will say on what they are on. hope that helps
