Cypress mulch versus Aspen opinions?

I was just curious how many of you use cypress mulch for you BPs. I am currently using aspen but have been thinking on using the cypress because its cheaper and I use it with my green tree python. The only hangup I have had with changing is that the cypress seems like it is very rough and sharp compared to the aspen I use. If any of you use cypress mulch have you had any issues with it injuring your snakes? All input will be appreciated.

Thanks

i don't use it, as you know. it just looks dirty to me.

Its not as dusty as the aspen, and doesn't mold as fast as the aspen does when one of your water dumping snakes dumps water on it.

I never liked cyprus at all. I use aspen and love it.

I have saw that some people use it.. But its mostly the triple Milled Cypress.

That's why you change aspen if they dump water. or use ceramic dog/cat water bowls

Its easier to see messes, easier to clean up. imo anyway...

Yea, it really sucks when they like to dump it every day!!!!! The ceramic bowls that are small enough for the 16 quart tubs still get dumped by the juvies, I would go with larger bowls but then I wouldn't have room for their hides. I like aspen too, just thought about trying the cypress.

Hmm I never have a problem with water being dumped with the ones that have ceramic (which are the ones that love to dump their water)

I use a decent size bowl too. Even in my 16qt tubs. I'd have to say the circumference is about the same as a small basketball, you know like the ones you win at fairs or w/e, lol.

The hides I use are too large for water bowls that size, I use a medium sized hide that are available through Reptile Basics.

Hmm, why don't you just make your own hides? I guess its easy for me. Only one ball uses a hide.
