Moss

[Curaniel]

I'm having a hard time finding just straight-up sphagnum moss in my town. Would it be ok to use a sphagnum/peat moss mix?

[Linds]

Peat moss is just finely milled sphagnum. I use it for my frog, but that's about it. IMHO it would be far too messy to use for terrestrial snakes, especially a large one, such as a heavy-bodied blood.

Also, if you could please reduce your signature to the maximum allowance of four vertical lines (this includes spaces). Thank you.

Oh sorry - I'm new, didn't know about the space thing.

And apparantly I can't read...

Have you tried Wal-Mart?

[Curaniel]

I usually avoid Wal-Mart, but I'll look there. I was surprised that neither Lowe's nor Home Depot had it, since their garden sections are so big.

I buy it at WalMart...$2.99 for a good size bag.
