  • The Amazing Reptichip!
Size: 1 Breeder Block
I have an ARS rack with 20 pretty large tubs, it's an ARS-70 series and ARS-80 series stacked on top of each other. I used a block of Reptichip and a block of Growit, the Growit seemed like it was the left over trash that was sorted out of the Reptichip bedding! There's no comparison at all. Needless to say I won't be getting any more Growit even though it was less expensive. I just ordered two more blocks of Reptichip. So far all my snakes just love it. I tried aspen and it was a mess, the snakes were getting it in their mouth when feeding, and it didn't hold the moisture and would mold very fast. Plus it didn't remove odors hardly at all. This Reptichip stuff is amazing, one block will hold about five gallons of water and expand to probably 3x - 4x the size of the original block. I've heard reviews that people only spot clean once a week and change it out once every three months! I've tried aspen, newspaper, paper towels, etc.. This stuff is by far the best I've used so far, you can't smell the snake poop, holds moisture like you wouldn't believe, and seems like it will last a long time. It may be more expensive up front but seems like it would save you in the long run. I used to spot clean every day with newspaper and paper towels. With this stuff I spot clean once every three days, seems like once a week would be sufficient. Makes keeping snakes so much easier. Now instead of cleaning snake tubs every day I can pull them out and play with them! ... show more

Best balance of value and quality it seems. With 5 reptiles, that's a big deal to me.

  • Worth the extra money
Size: 1 Breeder Block
This stuff expands fast. It isn't hard like some of the others and each piece is kind of spongey. Pieces aren't huge,kind of medium to small. It smells really nice, I use boiling hot water to expand mine in rubbermaids because I want it sanitized before I put into my ball python enclosures.. I did that on the 30th of October and it has been about 10 days-I haven't had to mist this stuff since expanding it. It holds humidity great. It does dry out some at the surface but in the hides, it holds amazing. Especially well if you use 3+ inches. I had been reluctant to buy this seeing how other chips of similar type were cheaper on here and so went with a cheaper option at first..I regret not buying this from the start..The quality and suspicion of moths in the cheaper option caused me ALOT of headache. I haven't had any problems with Reptichip so far. ... show more

  • Hasn't ever let me down
Size: 1 Breeder Block
Works great for my ball pythons. Holds enough moisture without molding, and rough enough for them to easily get their sheds off in one piece. If you're getting it for the first time it might not look like a whole lot but once you start breaking the block apart it expands a LOT. Some bags I've noticed can be pretty dusty so maybe take it apart somewhere with decent airflow or wear a mask to protect your lungs. Or be like me and deal with 5-10 minutes of non-stop sneezing and wheezing... (Don't be like me.) This stuff lasts me a good while, it's easy to clean, easy to store (I have a tote I bought from Walmart that holds it all just fine) it's chunks so it doesn't really stick to itself so if your snake likes to burrow this might not be up to their liking. I've personally never had an issue with any of my snakes eating it or getting hurt by it, no blockages or anything of the sort. ... show more

  • Nice substrate, will never use anything else.
Size: 1 Breeder Block
Works well, love this substrate! Doesn’t smell bad either. Holds humidity really well. It does have a hard time soaking up water and expanding if you aren’t using a watering hose. My little House Snake LOVES to burrow in this.
