Buy Carpet & Liners for Reptiles in Bainbridge Island

Getting the right bedding for your pet snake, turtle or lizard can be difficult. There are various items to choose from. 

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

As an example, snakes prefer substrate made of 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 consistency. 

Hermit crabs like a combination of sand, silt, and coconut fiber, a combination that imitates what they would find on a tropical beach. Most sand products have a probiotic added that helps to break down organic waste. They maintains your pet's environment clean and fresh-smelling. You can get sand items in a range 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 which contains riverbed sand, to resemble the turtle's natural environment.

Some reptile owners prefer to put 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 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 decreasing reptile smells. They can be removed, rinsed to clean, and reinserted right into your reptile's environment.
