Zoo Med Reptile Cage Carpet is a soft, non-abrasive substrate for all types of reptiles. Absorbent, pulling waste away from the surface and the tender belly of your reptile. Better than non-absorbent astro turf type carpets, which are made of plastic and can irritate the animals underside, ultimately leaving the animal susceptible to bacterial build up and infection.
- Absorbent
- Washable
- Recommended by professional hobbyist as carpet aids in muscle development in lizards, turtles, and tortoises.
- Safe: Cannot be accidentally ingested.
- Assorted Colors: Green, Gray, Blue, and Brown. Color cannot be specified
Great for use as a protective layer when using the Reptitherm U.T.H. and loose substrates (i.e. Repti Bark, Repti Sand or Terrarium Moss. )

It is so much better also, as foster parent of my beardie the other owner used cedar chips!! looked online and saw that they cause impaction (can) so i bought this and she loves it. acts like an insulator.

This product saved my bearded dragons life. We had used wood substrate until my male ingested it causing major damage when he tried to pass it through his system. This product was safer and easier to maintain, i would suggest this to anyone who has larger reptiles

I have had 3 juvenile beardies on this carpet since January... it is very easy to maintain (I usually just have to shake it off... once in a while i take it out and run a vacuum over it) and has not developed any foul odor, pilling, or anything bad... I recommend this product for young bearded dragons for sure.

Its not all one thinks. Zoo med does make a better one over the other brands BUT my leo still got his claws stuck(which is common and they tend rip their nails out trying to get free) and my other baby leo GOT HIS JAW CAUGHT ON IT WHILE FEEDING!!!!! If I hadn't been there to help he'd have broken his jaw!! Plus the meal worms get under it making it a hassle to find them all!! The crickets hide in the corners too making it hard. The roaches were wiggling themselves under as well. I wouldn't recommend this to Leopard gecko owners. Tile is much better and if find this a HUGE waste of money. I'd rather have spent it on more food for them.

I love this. My reptiles feeders cant wiggle under it and hide, it has helped muscle development in my lizard and its super easy to clean!!

Looks great and our corn snake seems to enjoy it. Great price. We bought two packs so that we can have one in the tank and one drying after being washed.

Easy to clean and very long lasting.
Great product to keep down on dust!

This is great because nothing gets stuck to the bottom of tortoise like most substrates and easy to clean.

I have bought other carpet for my reptile cage in the past, but she loves this one!
