i guess i will choose which one is cheaper, hehe

never choose the cheap option,I always told my kids our pets deserve the best we can give them or else we don't keep them
I just use Newspaper , although doesnt look as pretty..alot easier.
Ive always wanted to use Tiles though for the beardies, but could never find the right type i wanted..maybe will try again soon.
Sand will be messy, and will probably start smelling after awhile, even with regular poop scoops. I use bark chips for my Python, which looks great..would go alright with beardies.
Paper is a bad choice for long term substrate because beardies like to dig which helps wear their claws down where-as paper doesn't provide any friction to wear them down
wood chips would work with beardies,a bit harder to spot the poop but still not a bad substrate,I use it for my bluey.And no ; sand doesn't start to smell after a while,I have had centrals on sand for 6 years now with no dramas

Well, my beardies do just fine on paper.. they are out of their tanks more than not anyway. Nothing wrong with using paper
Sandstone tiles under a bed of washed and screened play sand is what I use, satisfies their natural digging instinct and keeps their claws in check. Sand does not smell if you scoop poop daily and change completely every 2-3 months.

Untill their feet become deformed. Just my opinion from things I have seen.
Mine spend most of their time on their rocks and logs, so still not a problem ..
Hi again,
Can i just ask the people that use tiles what kind you use? When i was looking i was looking for slate kind of tiles that were rough, but thin and i couldnt find any at Bunnings. I have 3 lizard tanks so i guess its easier to use paper for cleaning..but tiles would look good i think.
Yes thats what i wanted.. but was very hard to find what i wanted. Im not silly enough to put slippery tiles in.. just wondering what kind other people use.
you would be amazed at what some people use,there are some really dumb people who shouldn't ever have pets
