I was so curious, what is the best substrate that you can purchase for Bearded dragons that is easy to clean and not very expensive? I know that sand is the last thing to put in the tank. But i have heard of Repti Carpet. What is that and if you know can you give me some details? Plus what is a Repti hammockgt; What is it used for? Should I get one? Please answer these and remember you guys are saving my life one anwser at a time!
Use paper towels. Easy to buy, easy to clean. And sorry, I can't tell you much about the repticarpet.
This is the question that everybody asks me, Don't go with Repti-Carpet, it has tiny holes usually on the sides which means the nails will get caught and have seen toes come off because of it. i use Excavator Clay its good for desert Species and can be molded into land scape's by just adding water, just make sure it drys fully before putting bake your Bearded dragon, hope this helps!!!!!
Wishing I knew what age yours is! Reptile carpet, unglazed tiles, slate, newspaper, paper towels and washable shelf liner is to be used up until about the first year. Never use Calci sand as it cause impaction. Mine are all adults now and I do have them on washed play sand with no problems but then I did build feeding stations for all of mine. I like the sand as it is easiest for me to clean but I used the carpet when they were younger. It is green and you get it at the pet store. I have also use the washable shelf liner and that was easy too. Just be sure that when you take the carpet out or liner that you have one ready to replace it with while you wash and dry the other
