Eco Earth® Coconut Chips

Zoo Med's innovative Eco Earth Coconut Chips are a naturally derived coconut coir substrate crafted from an environmentally conscious, replenishable source. This material boasts exceptional absorbency, capable of holding up to 8 times its dry weight in water. Its unique moisture retention properties facilitate a gradual release, establishing an ideal humid, tropical ambiance that suits a diverse array of reptiles, amphibians, and invertebrates. Not only does this substrate excel as a standalone choice for species that thrive in high humidity, but it also shines in creating humid microclimates and proves invaluable in bioactive setups. When incorporated into a bioactive soil blend, the coarse texture enhances aeration, resists compaction, and promotes drainage—essential elements fostering flourishing plant life and the well-being of cleanup crews. Distinguished by its enduring quality and inherent resistance to mold, Coconut Chips eliminate the need for frequent replacements. Plus, once its tenure is complete, this product gracefully transitions into a sustainable cycle. Safely compostable, it finds a second life enriching potted plants or nurturing gardens, ensuring a harmonious balance between pet care and environmental responsibility.
