I use kitchen roll in the hatchlings tanks and a mixture of orchid bark and soil for all the others. _________________

I've got forest bed i think its made by T'Rex but im not sure. Its fine once it has been compacted down and holds moisture well, also its very fine so it cannot be accidentally ingested by the crestie. _________________ 0.0.1 Rhacodactylus ciliatus (Crested Gecko) |

I use compacted peat for babies up to 3"'s and then switch over to newspaper. _________________
