It's a great quality material to use for an aesthetic effect. Easy to use, doesn't smell damp, safe for reptiles, natural colour. My girl is fussy, she refused to use artificial shelters, created a small sized cave initially out of this, shes then dug it out to fit her needs. All in all, I will use again. Review: Brilliant piece of kit - Absolutely brilliant stuff you need a little bit more water than suggested to make sure its well mixed liked putty clay and when you are moulding use wet latex or nitrate gloves keep wetting hands to get good contact. I only used one bag for what I made but could have used more to be fair as I only managed one cave but it looks awesome 👌 ## Features - Holds its shape so tunnels won't collapse - All natural, no dyes or chemicals - Make your reptiles feel like they are at home" in their natural habitat" - International products have separate terms, are sold from abroad and may differ from local products, including fit, age ratings, and language of product, labeling or instructions. - A modern, interactive, remouldable substrate made from natural coloured sand - Contains no added dyes, chemicals or colour sealers - Has the ability to hold its shape and any burrows made will not easily collapse - Make a natural, clean, long lasting, interesting and attractive looking substrate for your reptiles home - Suitable for bearded dragons, uromastyx, leopard geckos, desert or temperate set ups, reptiles from arid habitats ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000N5OM8S | | Allergen Information | Allergen-Free | | Batteries Included | No | | Batteries required | No | | Best Sellers Rank | 9,834 in Pet Supplies ( See Top 100 in Pet Supplies ) 42 in Terrarium Substrate | | Colour | multi-coloured | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (1,701) | | Date First Available | 8 Aug. 2009 | | Item Weight | 4.54 kg | | Item model number | XR10 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Pet Life Stage | All Life Stages | | Pet Type | Reptile | | Product Dimensions | 50.8 x 20.32 x 10.16 cm; 4.54 kg | | Quantity | 1 | | Size | 4.5 kg (Pack of 1) | | Special features | Made In America | | Specific Uses | Active | ## Images ![zoomed Zoo Med XR-10 Excavator Clay Substrate, 4.5 Kg - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61wnyO9zP1L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It works *by P***R on 27 November 2024* Got this to create a more natural environment for my beardy.
