I'm planning on bringing home a Mexican Black Kingsnake next month and I'm trying to get everything set up beforehand. I know that aspen is the best, but I've also heard good things about Eco Earth. Personally, I like the look of the dark substrate better, but would it be okay to use? I've read that it holds humidity pretty well, but Kings don't need much humidity on a regular basis, do they?
Anyway, if not Eco Earth, is there another dark substrate I would be okay to use? Any and all recommendations are appreciated
