Polo2468, I've been using 100% peat for mine. However, I've noticed a few posts hailing the benefits of some mixes and coconut coir, especially in regards to stability of burrow walls, etc. I may try this next re-housing.
Hi, polo2468. I personally use a mix of neutral potting soil, coconut substrate and some fine gravel for my terrestrial species. Don't know if it's the best choice but it works fine for me. Cheers!
The pros and cons of these and other substrates have been debated many times. It's really a matter of preference. Look up "peat moss", "substrate", etc in the search box to find many useful threads.
