    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Alright. I'm in the process of seperating out my corns into their own enclosures. What do you guys recommend for substrate. Keeping in mind that I'd like something fairly natural to them, but easily cared for. I don't mind repti-carpet or other ideas, just no paper towels etc =)

Thanks heaps.
 
jmho shredded aspen or husked coconut...

...Since you don't want to use paper...I've used both, and do believe they look much nicer than paper...I definately dont recommend feeding your snakes on it though, as it can be ingested and cause an impaction...both aspen and coconut absorb well, keep humidity levels up and clump good when your snakes make doodies ;*)
 
Thanks Chris. I work in a pet store and can get to a couple different aspen products. Are you talking about aspen shavings, or the gravel type stuff... does it matter? What about cage furniture.. will they be happy under a log, do they need a dark cave type of thing??
 
Shredded aspen all the way. It will make them feel safer cause they can burrow.
