I use the compressed crushed coconut fiber dirt for my lay boxes. But just for the lay boxes. It works well. The zoo Med brand is called eco earth. <http://www.zoomed.com/db/products/Search.php?Page=1&SearchID=1&DatabaseID=2&Heading=Terrarium&ProductCategory=Cage%20Substrates>

People use peat moss also.
