Description

Please note that the product information displayed is provided by manufacturers, suppliers and other third parties and is not independently verified by Petco.

The Exo Terra Stone Desert mimics the natural soil found in arid regions, like deserts or savannahs. Most desert soils are not purely sand-based but rather a combination of sand, decomposed granite and clay resulting in interesting and sometimes colorful rock formations. Exo Terra's Stone Desert allows you to create your own desert or savannah landscape, including cool-humid burrows as well as warmer elevated basking areas. The cool-humid burrows allow your reptiles to absorb the much needed moisture via their skin while sleeping or hiding, while the warmer elevated basking areas help your reptiles to thermoregulate by offering various important temperature gradients.

- Natural desert soil, no added dyes or chemicals
- Ideal to create your own desert or savannah landscape
- Allows you to create outcrops, tunnels and burrows
- Stimulates natural digging and burrowing behavior
- Does not collapse once dry
- Excellent heat conductor

Should this work for a Mexican black Kingsnake? Asking due to the grey color being perfect with the snakes color and as they are a desert species so they do not need a substrate that holds humidity.

It would look awesome on top of /mixed into the top of your regular substrate to give it some texture. My kingsnake enjoys burrowing a lot and I feel like this as the only substrate would be exceptionally coarse/heavy. I use it with arid animals, but again, just as a topping. Hope that helps. Let us know how it works if you do it.
