maybe wash it a few times and i think it might be ok but tbh iv always bought new things for each new snake, although i will be disinfecting Little Ones faun and putting aura in it when she comes home and L.O gets a spanking new viv..
seriously dont give up on Mont though..you might still find him

Worded perfectly my friend, well apart from at the end "all word perfect" but i won't be petty

Personally I would not use it again, but I can't see why you couldn’t considering you have washed it and disinfected it? (if milton is disinfectant)

yes milton is a weak bleach, it is used to clean baby bottles. I love the log so much and monty never really used it, he only used it as a small boy. I am going rep shopping this weekend for some new stuff so i will see how much i get and if the log is replaced or if it will fit in the faun.

what did you meen by word perfect, (hope meen is spelt corectly, or is it mean?)

word perfect means litterally, words are perfect.

Yes it is word perfect, this aint an english essay lad.

Personally, I'd bake it at 100*c for 1/2 hours and bleach it in a 10:90% ratio bleach to water.

would it matter what type of bleach you used, so long as it isnt a ridiculously strong one?

thats great RD i can read it, it makes sense, and i can reply hun

TBH it's not like you're treating NEW wood for mites or creepy crawlies so a scrub with milton or other reptile-friendly disinfectant should be fine.........

Sounds like everything you have done is perfect reptiledanny....and I know it is important to you to keep something of Monty's like this piece of wood. Although, as HannahB said, dont give up hope on him...you never know, he may suddenly turn up and you will have 2 snakes !

I am so pleased you are finally getting your new snake. You have done so much research and put so much care into your snake keeping, and I know how much you must be missing Monty.

Your posts are great, they are easier to read and as someone who often doesnt have a brain that is functioning normally I really appreciate the effort you are making. But please dont get paranoid about every word or bit of grammer!!! We are not the 'English Language Police', and all we care about is you and your snakes...not how you spell!

(By the way Hillzi...'litterally' is spelt 'literally'....so you were not word perfect!! )

thanks, i am really missing monty, miss that interaction so mum thought a new snake would bring that all back. just hoping that monty turns up. dad found a small hole in my room that runs under the floor that leads outside. , don't know if he has gone down it but dad says im not ripping up the floor. hope the new snake is as good as monty, friendly yet now what he wants, and get it . can't wait. happy new year to you all, for me, a new year, a new snake. maybe two. dad has sed if monty doesn't turn up by donny i can get another corn again so then i have two, want a male and female, maybe get a ghost again, female this time.
