Description:
Zoo Med Excavator Clay allows reptiles to dig tunnels and burrows just like they do in nature. Watch your reptiles perform natural digging behaviors; mold and create multi-level terraces and burrows in your reptiles terrarium. Make your reptiles feel like they are "at home" in their natural habitat. Excavator holds its shape so burrows and tunnels won't collapse All Natural! No added dyes, colors or chemicals.

Directions:
* Make sure that you have enough Excavator clay substrate to achieve the desired depth in your terrarium.
* Moisten the Excavator substrate in a bucket by adding 3 cups of water to each 10 pound bag of Excavator. Thoroughly mix the substrate until a uniform consistency is achieved. Place the moistened Excavator substrate in your terrarium, forming hills, terraces and other features. Use common household items like water bottles and balloons to create dens, burrows and tunnels. Once the desired terrain is achieved, pat the substrate to compact it while it is still moist.
* Allow substrate to partially dry overnight before removing tools used to create burrows and tunnels.
* Reptile can be placed in the terrarium when the substrate is partially dry or at least dry on the surface. Drying time will depend on the ambient temperature. Many reptile species will continue to dig burrows and tunnels to create a truly naturalistic habitat. If your reptiles are natural diggers, you can let them do all the works and create their own burrows and tunnels. Your reptiles may need time to adjust to their new habitat before they start to dig and burrow in the substrate.
* Periodic misting with a water bottle can help the substrate maintain its shape and can help in achieving the desired humidity level for various reptile species.
* To change the shape of the terrain, remove all reptiles from the terrarium. Add water, mix and mold the substrate until the desired affect is achieved. If substrate is too hard to mix, allow water to soak into substrate before remixing.

Cleaning:
* Spot clean substrate as necessary. If the substrate becomes heavily soiled, or if a foul odor persists, replace with new substrate.
* DO NOT rinse the substrate under running water as this will remove the clay and the substrate will not be moldable.
