I have asked these type ?'s before but I want some good answers. I want to get a sand boa. I want it to stay healthy and live for a long time. What is the best bedding? I have heard no sand from folks. How is carefresh, aspen, walnut shell, corn cob, or anything anyone else uses. I want to use something that is some what attractive. Please give me all the advice you can on bedding. This seems to be the one thing that is most disagreed on.

I keep all mine in aspen because after hours of reaserch I found that all the top breeders were using aspen in one forum or another. Also in the wild they do not live in sand the same way as if they were droped into an aquarium filled with sand. A couple of good products to check out are beta chip and alpha chip. I use beta chip and shreded aspen and I prefer the beta chip.
And on a side not I never feed my sand boas in their cage. I alway take them out and feed them inside a seperate container.
Cheers,
Trevor

Beta chip (aspen).

There's also a Sand Boa book out that will answer ALL your questions.
