pine pellets

I know alot of people on here use equine fresh for their rodents.How long does it last for those of you that use the medium sized 6 tub concrete rack?I think the pellets come in bags of 40 pounds.:confused:

One bag is 15-16 tubs for me.

How long do you think I could use it in a tub that size with a ratio of 1.3, could i use it for longer then a week, like a week and half with out cleaning it.

I do it once a week.

Is it absolutely needed by then? Ive been using pine shavings but I am tired of have to rinse out the tubs every time I clean.When using these does pee get stuck on the bottom of the tubs?

No, but I am a tireless advocate of humane treatment of feeders. I change them every week, you'll see why quickly. The pellets break down and there is a lot of poop and pee.

While pellets is amazing stuff, you still need to change it out just as often.

how much more is the pellets over the shaving.

oh and does anyone remember where on the forum i can find that water mixture that cuts back on amonia smell i think it was vanilla and water mix???????

just a drop in an 8 oz bottle is enough vanilla, or else it tastes nasty. Vanilla is really strong and alcoholic bitterish taste.

Aspen is about 10 bucks a bale of 4 cubic feet. I dont remember how many tub changes that is. Sorry. :oops:
