What is Repti-grass? I’m having trouble finding any info on it - you in England? Most of the sites that *used to* have it are based there.

hi i live in scotland its basically just like an astro turf but it makes life so much easier for cleaning them out im using it for my whites just now and they seem happy when it comes to cleaning them out you lift out dirty one wash it in disinfectant then clean water and let it dry. i have a spare so just swap them over will also save me a fortune in future instead of buying new substrate every couple of weeks

My *guess* would be that it would be fine. The substrate issues for gargoyles that I know about are related to impaction - if its something they can swallow and not digest, its a problem, but if they can’t swallow it, I would think it would be ok. Is it fairly soft?
