All my Royals are on newspaper, it doesn't look nice but it is easy to clean up after them & it's cheap . Also means i can feed them all in their RUBs/vivs without fear of them getting an impaction from swallowing any substrate .

calci sand is terrible stuff. Royals live in grassy and lighty wooded areas generally, they are not desert snakes.

If you want a natural looking substrate go for something like orchid bark, royals also need a decent amount of humidity to be able ot shed properly, sand certainly wont be helping with that.

Orchid bark is cool as long as you bake it or freeze it, due to the fact it contains more creepy cralwies than a prostitutes under crackers.

Calci sand is the devil
