Tropical Burrow Mix

Built for the deep diggers from wet places. Top soil, coco fiber and peat hold moisture, sphagnum keeps it springy, clay binds the burrow walls and orchid chips add structure so it stays airy. Earth tigers, Heterometrus and emperor scorpions, vinegaroons and big millipedes all want this kind of floor, packed deep. Grab a bag with your next burrower and fill the Burrow Buddy to the top.

Why keepers pick this one

• Holds Moisture: coco, peat and sphagnum keep humidity up between mistings.
• Holds a Burrow: clay binds tunnel walls so they keep their shape.
• Stays Airy: orchid chips and sphagnum add structure.
• Mixed and Bagged: six ingredients premixed.

Build it out

Pack it deep in a Burrow Buddy, start the tunnel under a Cork Bark Tube or Small Cork Bark, and add a Repti Zoo Water Dish.

Good to know

• Quick math: inside length x width x depth, in inches, is the cubic inches you need. A 1 qt bag (a US dry quart) is about 67 cubic inches, and substrate settles when you pack it, so round up a bag.

Hydrate to the species, not the bag.
