BLUE TONGUE SKINKS

I have always used aspen for merauke but I use a spagnum peat moss in my tegu cages, would this be alright for my merauke?

Cypress mulch is the most preferred.
I don't like peat...

To actually answer your question, I see no reason why you can't try that bedding for your skink.

Cypress mulch is very hard to find in my area and to do her cage it would cost well over $50 in substrate and the only type of cypress I can get here happens to be very sharp and pokey.... :/
I was mainly asking because I didn't know if the small loose particles would be too dusty for her since I have read not to sure the fine type of aspen for that reason...

I say give it a try. I do use cypress mulch from lowes that is sharp and pokey as well as large chunks. Never an issue. But really just try the peat and see how you like it.
