Review: The Amazing Reptichip! - I have an ARS rack with 20 pretty large tubs, it's an ARS-70 series and ARS-80 series stacked on top of each other. I used a block of Reptichip and a block of Growit, the Growit seemed like it was the left over trash that was sorted out of the Reptichip bedding! There's no comparison at all. Needless to say I won't be getting any more Growit even though it was less expensive. I just ordered two more blocks of Reptichip. So far all my snakes just love it. I tried aspen and it was a mess, the snakes were getting it in their mouth when feeding, and it didn't hold the moisture and would mold very fast. Plus it didn't remove odors hardly at all. This Reptichip stuff is amazing, one block will hold about five gallons of water and expand to probably 3x - 4x the size of the original block. I've heard reviews that people only spot clean once a week and change it out once every three months! I've tried aspen, newspaper, paper towels, etc.. This stuff is by far the best I've used so far, you can't smell the snake poop, holds moisture like you wouldn't believe, and seems like it will last a long time. It may be more expensive up front but seems like it would save you in the long run. I used to spot clean every day with newspaper and paper towels. With this stuff I spot clean once every three days, seems like once a week would be sufficient. Makes keeping snakes so much easier. Now instead of cleaning snake tubs every day I can pull them out and play with them!
Review: Perfect for Ball Pythons! - Great product! I use it for my ball pythons and it’s done very well holding in humidity and is asthetically pleasing. Add water, mix it up, and use!!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this stuff 100% mite and insect free?**
A: I have had pretty serious mite problems since I tried ReptiChip. Not pathogenic snake mites, just the little wood mites/grain mites that can infest insect cultures. There are several other reviews indicating this was not an isolated incident on my end.

**Q: Why does it bleed red and is the bleeding from red dye????  Or is it just the nature colors bleeding**
A: Coconut shells have natural tannins, which leach when wet. It is completely harmless to your animals, and some animals (especially aquatic species) actually prefer the presence of tannins. In nature, it's called "black water" and is common especially in the Amazons and SE Asia. Coconuts, Indian almond leaf, certain woods, and several other natural sources of plant matter are the cause of this staining. If you were to soak/boil a 100% organic coconut's she'll, you would experience the same effect. It will lower the pH of water, but should not effect an terrestrial animal in any negative fashion. I hope this helps.

**Q: Is this 100% coconut because the one I got smells like fir or cypress is in it ....?**
A: Yes, this is 100% chipped coconut husk with no added fillers.

**Q: Is reptichip good/safe for baby columbian rainbow boa's and how much of layer of substrate to put down? Is a lil over a inch good or more.**
A: It's will work fine for a Columbian rainbow and about an inch would be be plenty. Just make sure to keep it moist.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worth the extra money
*by A***R on November 8, 2025*

This stuff expands fast. It isn't hard like some of the others and each piece is kind of spongey. Pieces aren't huge,kind of medium to small. It smells really nice, I use boiling hot water to expand mine in rubbermaids because I want it sanitized before I put into my ball python enclosures.. I did that on the 30th of October and it has been about 10 days-I haven't had to mist this stuff since expanding it. It holds humidity great. It does dry out some at the surface but in the hides, it holds amazing. Especially well if you use 3+ inches. I had been reluctant to buy this seeing how other chips of similar type were cheaper on here and so went with a cheaper option at first..I regret not buying this from the start..The quality and suspicion of moths in the cheaper option caused me ALOT of headache. I haven't had any problems with Reptichip so far.
