I have been using Newspaper as substrate for the last ten years for my two stars. For a change, I bought 4 Paw Reptile carpet grass as new substrate for them. However after one night, the stars half over turned the carpet grass and hide underneath, a habit they developed when I used Newspaper.
The carpet grass appears to be always wet from their urine and furthermore it already starts to smell the next day.
I am concerned whether would this moisture be bad for the Stars? Also how often do you need to wash this carpet grass? I am thinking of washing it every 2 -3 days. Seemed like using this carpet grass requires more maintanance than using Newspaper (just need to throw away).
Is using carpet grass good for long term or should I revert back to Newspaper?
