Default Substrate?

What do you use for your Viper Geckos. I have them on play sand now. I picked up a bag of Reptilite by carbisea today. I havent used it yet. I am wanting to know what others use and suggest. Thanks

I use potting soil for a number of my geckos with good results.

Best,

Chuck

Eco Earth is a compressed coconut fibre substrate that is ideal for burrowing animals. It can be used to increase humidity in an enclosure, egg laying chamber, or shed box.

It should work perfect for any gecko. Since a viper gecko is mostly on the ground as well this is soft and feels more like soil but without pesticides and fertilizer in it. There are many different brands of this stuff too so you just don’t have to look for the one I suggested.
