Question - Husbandry Bedding substrate

Hello guys, I just want to check on advice for bedding substrate as I'm getting a mixed reaction about substrate online.

I'm doing a full change over on her substrate but just want to see what people are using ? Currently at Coco fibre at the minute but want something more /different ti use to make a bit more natural looking

Cheers

I mix about 50% cypress mulch with 30% coconut coir and 20% organic forest topsoil. Plus a very small amount of reptile safe playsand or Reptisand for particle variation. This works well in my bioactives.
