So I'm working on a bioactive project for my bearded dragon and asked my aunt to buy a couple things for me, and Lugarti's Natural Reptile Bedding wasn't on my list but she thought I needed the substrate (I wasn't super clear so that's on me)
So now I kinda just have 4 10 quart bags of Lugarti's Natural Reptile Bedding and was wondering if y'all think it would work as an Eco Earth substitute? I'd still have the 5:1 (or 4:1?) Sand to Dirt ratio but I need to know if that works
Thank you!
Can I Use Lugarti's Natural Reptile Bedding + Playsand As My Main Substrate?

I looked it up, and it contains "blend of high quality sphagnum peat moss, extremely fine sand, and natural clay". I would say that this unfortunately would not be appropriate for hermit crabs substrate. I'd worry about the clay.
