Aspen for ATB

[lougotzz]

Thinking about getting an ATB....is aspen an okay substrate for these snakes?

I'm sure most will say not to use it, because it is to dry and will mold if it gets wet. I have used it with my ATBs for years and never had any issues with it.

i stopped using Aspen for my Carpet Pythons due to its high dust content,Aspen caused mild Respritory symptoms to mine and other Carpet keepers i know

i don't know what like your is re dust ?

also i im reading correctly,its going into a humid tank,so dust should not be an issue


cheers shaun

I've used it in other humid-loving species enclosures and like Jerry said, it molds easily but it's also cheap and easily replaced. I would use cypress honestly but aspen will work.
