Get Reptile Subsrate and Bedding for Reptiles in Beverly Hills

Getting the best bedding for your pet snake, turtle or lizard can be challenging. There are several items to select from. 

The right option for your cold-blooded companion depends on the species and sub-species. You want to match your environment's bedding to the reptiles native environment as closely as possible. 

As an example, snakes prefer substrate made from sand, gravel and stone, wood shavings, and paper products.  

Lizards choose to sleep on sand and gravel. 

Desert-dwellers, such as bearded dragons and skinks, like walnut wheels that are ground into a sand-like uniformity. 

Hermit crabs like a mix of sand, silt, and coconut fiber, a mix that imitates what they would find on a tropical coastline. Most sand products have a probiotic added that assists to break down natural waste. They keeps your pet's environment clean and fresh-smelling. You can get sand products in a variety of shades, including black, red and yellow, to add a little style to your habitat. 

If you have a pet turtle, you'll want to get a substrate that contains riverbed sand, to mimic the turtle's natural surroundings.

Some reptile owners choose to place a carpet liner in their pet's habitat. This can be used with most reptiles and can be cut to fit your tank. A carpet liner gives a soft surface for your reptile's underbelly. You can add various other bedding items, such as bark, wood shavings, or moss over the carpet. Pet carpets are easy to set up and also assist in minimizing reptile odors. They can be removed, rinsed to clean, and reinserted into your reptile's habitat.
