I have a what is probably a very dumb question , but better to ask and know rather then not know and give the wrong advice to someone else.
A recent thread on Bearded Dragon enclosures a member was recomending to use tiles or carpet as substrate, and that sand especially calcium sand was bad. I did pose the question after this comment however the post was bumped to far down the list and was missed being answered.
Is this a common thought on sand and calcium sand as a substrate, i just want to know why it is bad? I am shortly to be setting up an enclosure for, i hope, a jacky lizard or similar.
Is sand bad for all lizards? Or just breaded dragons or all dragons?
What sabstrates are recommended for 'natural' looking enclosures other then sand?
Cheers,
Phil
