Creating a natural and well-balanced enclosure starts with the right substrate. HerpChip Mini provides a slightly larger, more uniform particle size compared to standard coir, improving airflow while still maintaining excellent moisture retention.

When dampened, this substrate helps maintain stable humidity levels, making it ideal for tropical species and humidity-dependent reptiles. It also supports natural behaviours such as burrowing and exploring.

Its dust-extracted composition helps keep enclosures cleaner, while its absorbent nature reduces odours and simplifies maintenance.

HerpChip Mini is suitable for a wide range of species and is particularly popular for hatchling and juvenile snakes, including Royal (Ball) Pythons, while also performing well in larger vivariums for lizards and amphibians.

Available in both ready-made bags for convenience and compressed blocks for efficient storage and value.

Directions for Use:
Use straight from the bag or hydrate compressed blocks as required. Spread evenly across the enclosure base and maintain appropriate moisture levels depending on your species. Spot clean regularly and replace as required.
