ProRep Coco Chips 4.5kg – Coconut Chip Reptile Substrate

PR Coco Chips is a natural coconut chip substrate suited to a wide range of reptiles, amphibians, and invertebrates. Supplied as a compressed block weighing 4.5kg, it expands readily when water is added — giving you a substantial volume of loose substrate from a compact, easy-to-store block.

How It Works

Place the compressed block in water and it expands quickly to its full, usable size. There is no complicated preparation — once expanded, the substrate is ready to lay directly into your vivarium or terrarium. The chip texture retains its structure well, keeping the enclosure looking tidy between cleans.

Encouraging Natural Behaviour

The loose, chunky texture supports natural digging and burrowing activity, allowing animals to express instinctive behaviours within the enclosure. The substrate provides a comfortable surface underfoot, reducing stress for ground-dwelling species.

Humidity Retention

Coconut chip is well regarded for its ability to hold and gradually release moisture, making it a practical choice for rainforest and tropical setups where consistent humidity is essential. Regular misting is absorbed and released steadily, helping keepers maintain stable conditions without constant intervention.

Species Suitability

• Suitable for tropical and rainforest reptiles requiring humid conditions
• Compatible with amphibians and invertebrates
• Supports burrowing species that benefit from a yielding, naturalistic substrate

PR Coco Chips is a straightforward, dependable substrate choice for keepers who want a natural-looking enclosure that genuinely supports their animal's welfare and environmental needs.
