{"product_id":"et-forest-bark-4-4l-pt2750","title":"Exo Terra Forest Bark Vivarium Substrate 4.4L (PT2750)","description":"\u003cp\u003eET Forest Bark is a 100% natural fir bark substrate designed for humidity-loving reptiles, amphibians, and invertebrates. If you're keeping species that need consistent ambient moisture — tropical boids, chameleons, dart frogs, or bioactive setups — this is a substrate that actively works with your enclosure environment rather than against it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eNatural Composition\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMade from 100% natural fir bark, this substrate contains no artificial additives or treatments. The organic structure of fir bark makes it a reliable choice for keepers who want a naturalistic vivarium floor that also performs a functional role.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHumidity Regulation\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eForest Bark is hygroscopic — it absorbs moisture readily and releases it slowly back into the enclosure air. This helps buffer humidity levels over time, reducing the peaks and troughs that can stress sensitive species. Regular misting charges the substrate, which then maintains ambient humidity between sessions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBehavioural Enrichment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe loose, chunky texture encourages natural digging and burrowing behaviour in species that exhibit it in the wild. Providing an outlet for these instincts contributes to a more stimulating and stress-reduced captive environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003ePractical Keeper Benefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAbsorbs organic waste, helping to manage odour between cleans\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDecorative appearance suits naturalistic and bioactive vivarium setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4.4L bag suitable for smaller enclosures or as a top-up supply\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eET Forest Bark gives humidity-dependent species the substrate conditions they need while keeping maintenance straightforward — a dependable choice for any tropical vivarium build.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peregrine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54148417225041,"sku":"SHB004","price":4.16,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0963\/0403\/8225\/files\/SHB004_1.jpg?v=1782599327","url":"https:\/\/viperia.co.uk\/products\/et-forest-bark-4-4l-pt2750","provider":"Viperia UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
