Re: How Often Do You Do A Full Enclosure Cleaning?
It really depends on the species for me. Some snakes, like my Burm and retic, are messier and they get cleaned every 1-2 weeks. I use paper for their substrate, so whenever they shed or pass waste they are cleaned out. My other pythons I spot clean every week and the substrate is changed about every 2 months, or sooner if it seems dirty.
Others, like my arboreal vipers, only eat once or twice a month and defecate after every 3rd meal, so they get spot-cleaned every time they poop, and the entire substrate is changed out every 3-4 months or so.
