Support Our Locally Owned Pet Store with Your Purchase of Sand & Gravel for Reptiles

Finding the best bedding for your pet snake, turtle or lizard can be difficult. There are many different items to select from. 

The ideal choice for your cold-blooded buddy depends on the species and sub-species. You want to match your habitat's bedding to the reptiles natural surroundings as closely as possible. 

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

Lizards like 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 mixture of sand, silt, and coconut fiber, a mix that mimics what they would find on a tropical coastline. Most sand products have a probiotic added that helps to break down natural waste. They keeps your pet's environment clean and fresh-smelling. You can get sand items in a selection of tones, 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 native environment.

Some reptile owners prefer to place a carpet liner in their pet's environment. This can be used with most reptiles and can be cut to fit your tank. A carpet liner provides a soft surface for your reptile's underbelly. You can include various other bedding products, such as bark, wood shavings, or moss over the carpet. Pet carpets are simple to set up and also help in reducing reptile odors. They can be removed, washed to clean, and reinserted right into your reptile's environment.
