If I went to my local home depot - and bought a bag of cypress mulch - what should I look for? Don't a lot of mulches have fertilizer in them? _________________ ~Jennifer ________________________ 0.0.1 - Argentine Tegu - Chucky 2.0.0 - Bearded Dragon - Dude and Xander 0.2.0 - Dogs (black lab, and a shephard husky mix) Nookie and Roxie Back to top beardiedragon Retired Mod Joined: Dec 28, 2004 Posts: 253 Location: Miami, Fl Posted: Wed Mar 23, 2005 3:01 pm    Post subject: plain old cypress or eucalyptus is fine _________________ Bennett beardiedragon.com Home of the Florida Orange Back to top punky Member Joined: Apr 13, 2005 Posts: 62 Location: Austin, TX Posted: Thu Apr 14, 2005 1:40 pm    Post subject: is there anything you have to do with the mulch when buying it from home depot? like de-parasite it or anything? _________________ 1.0.1-tegus 0.0.1-iguana 0.0.1-beardie 0.1-RTB 0.0.1 Kingsnake 0.1-potbellied pig 3.2-cats 2.1-dogs 1.1-ferrets 0.1-Quaker 2.1-Zebra finches 1.1 conures 0.1-rat 0.0.1-emperor scorpion Back to top beardiedragon Retired Mod Joined: Dec 28, 2004 Posts: 253 Location: Miami, Fl Posted: Thu Apr 14, 2005 2:12 pm    Post subject: I dont do anything to it.
