Yes, ball pythons require a moist and humid enclosure. Pine absorbs the moisture and this can increase the chances of your ball python getting a respiratory infection and having a retained shed. Retained shed is where the snake does not shed all of their skin. This can lead to moth rot, tip of the tail falling off, eye caps and much much more.
Cyprus Mulch, cellsorb and newspaper are the best beddings for a ball python.

Teddy bear hamster infected eye due to pine bedding?
First of all, DO NOT USE PINE!!!!! Second, do some research and if necessary buy some medicine or go see your vet.

What is bad about radiata pine?
The reason why pine bedding is so bad is because *Burning pine logs will create creosote build up in your chimney. Over time this can lead to a chimney fire. I had this happen in a house. Burn some hard woods, like oak or maple with the pine. This creates a hotter fire and helps reduce the build up in the chimney. *But a liberal sprinkling of pine nuts over your dinner could also leave a bitter taste in your mouth. Increasing numbers of people have reported that after eating pine nuts, typically as a snack or in a pesto sauce, they have developed a foul, metallic taste in their mouth lasting for up to two weeks, making practically all food and drink unpalatable. *In pine, the main irritant is abietic acid, sometimes called sylvic acid. Hamsters exposed to cedar and pine wood over long periods of time have shown a clear link with chronic chest disease1. There is also a possible link with cancer and liver damage but the results of various studies are unclear and conflicting*Pine, sand, and cedar are the two tipes of bedding that you would not want to use for snake bedding. But however if you go to a petstore they normally have several types of reptile bedding. The best to use is aspen multch from a petstore. It is a little more resistant to parasites and doesn't mold easily from the damp climate you would need for your snake *Pine bedding can kill small animals by causing respiratory problems. *Pine bedding can also cause allergies.
Are you supposed to give you r guinea pig pine bedding?
Pine bedding is fine for guinea pigs. Some people believe pine shavings contain aromatic oils which could be potentially harmful for small animals. If you're worried about that, just air the shavings by placing them in an open container for a couple of days before using. That should be enough for any potentially harmful emission to dissipate. The kind of bedding you never want to use is cedar; that one is indeed very harmful to guinea pigs.

How do you break a bad habit when my horse eats straw instead of hay?
The horse is eating the straw because it is either hungry or bored. A horse should have hay available at all times to prevent bad behaviours, ulcers, and colic. You can use a slow feed hay net to accomplish this. Another note is that straw is not necessarily the best bedding for horses it may benefit the horse to have it's bedding switched to pine shavings or even large particle sawdust (small particle sawdust is bad for them).
