I am planning my soon-to-arrive ZenHabitats 4x2x2, and considering slate tiles for the floor. Lots of advantages: file beardie's nails, not slippery like ceramic tiles, looks more natural. But unsealed slate tiles are porous and I guess they would absorb beardies droppings, and quickly get stained and smelly.
Anyone had experience with natural slate? Do you recommend:
1) sealing the slate with chemical sealer? I'd be worried about toxicity
2) wash the slate after a poop and hope for the best
3) use a waterproof ceramic tile instead
