I have an amel tessera also. Sold to me as a candy cane tessera by a breeder who sold all her snakes, so I'll wait to see how she develops. I only keep hatchlings on paper towel until they are about 18 inches long. I use aspen shavings for the older corns. There's a lot of difference in available aspen, shavings, shredded aspen, and aspen chunks. I only use shavings, and I let the dust and small particles settle to the bottom of the bag and just use that in my flowers. I have used Care Fresh in the past, and the gray original product was a bit dusty. I've heard they have a white version now, but both are costly when you clean the corn containers weekly like I do. I have read that Care Fresh may cause a desiccant type of problem for snakes, but I didn't notice that when I used it.
