ProRep Snake Life Lignocel Substrate, 25L

Product Information

Pros: Lignocel is ideal for snakes that like to burrow because it doesn’t contain any sharp pieces or dust. Because it’s so absorbent, Lignocel holds on to humidity well. If your snake is recovering from respiratory problems, then Lignocel is a particularly good choice.

As well as keeping that substrate breathing and healthy which will also benefit any plants and moss within the setup. This temperature is taken via a probed thermometer, just outside the hide, near the basking spot. I do not use the highly inaccurate dial type thermometer. Newspaper substrate: I absolutely would not use this as a substrate. It serves zero benefit to the snake. The only benefit is ease of cleaning, and that’s purely a keeper benefit. Please keep in mind that this substrate is not very eco-friendly. Peat is mined from peat wet lands.

It makes for some great photos 😉 Since swapping out my Ceramic bulbs for these a couple of years ago I’ve seen increased but more intense basking sessions as well as an increase of overall activity. For me, this is a good thing. Yaashikaa PR, Kumar PS, Varjani S (2022) Valorization of agro-industrial wastes for biorefinery process and circular bioeconomy: a critical review.

It is very cheap as well. It can be found on almost every reptile show in Europe, but it may be a little harder to come by in the US.
