Well after 3 times of feeding my baby Mack snow I'm thinking about switching from tile to repti carpet. I have a gap about 3/4 on one side and 1/4 inch in the back. When I put her crickets in there they go straight for the cracks and hide from her. She has trouble getting them and if I stick the tongs in there to move the crickets she gets spooked and won't ear anymore of them.
I got the right amount of tiles so it should of fit perfect. My option is go to lowes buy 1 6x6 piece of matching tile and have them cut it 3/4 inch wide 6 inches long. I would need one piece of tile and have it cut twice to get the 2 pieces to fill in the gap on the side.
I would have to buy another piece of 6x6 tile and have them cut it like 6 times to fill in the gap in the back.
So now I'm thinking about just ditching the tile and getting 2 pieces of repticarpet. It is like $14 for 2 pieces that are 35inches long and 11 3/4 wide. I'd have to cut off 5 inches from each piece so it would fit my 20lomg.
I like the look of the repti carpet but heard that the leos toes get stuck in it, so what I want to know is this.
Will the carpet get the leos nails stuck in it?
How is the carpet compared to tile for heat transfer?
I have a uth without a tstat and I have the temps just ight with the tile. I have to put 6 single pieces of newspaper under the tile to keep the temps perfect. With the carpet would I have to use that much newspaper or maybe more?
I don't care about spending the $14 as it will make feeding extremely easier on me and her. I've got to get this back surgery on Tuesday so easier is better for me. Is there anything else I can use that looks like repti carpet but is significantly cheaper?
I won't use newspaper or paper towels as it looks tacky, sand is a no go, the tile must go, I won't use that kitchen roll as you'll still see the newspaper under it. I'm thinking the carpet is my only option.
I'm about to call around and see if anyone of the stores sell it with two pieces In a roll maybe it will be cheaper. It's $7 for one single piece and it only comes in one package at my local PS so I'm bout to try to find somewhere that sells it with 2 rolls per pack.
I reall like the tile and it looks sweet but right now it is a bain in the keester. If she was a adult it would be easier because I would use the large honkin crickets but I can't use them now and it will be quite some time wrote I can use them.
Tell me what ya think. I can't order any online as I don't have a CC so I need to get it locally I have a pets dumb and a pet supplies rust in my area plus some small mom and pop shops..
