need optioin for bedding

I'm working long hours and down to one car we share so I can't get to the feed store for equine. What is the best I can get at Petsmart to tide my asf's over until I get some free time?? REALLY need to clean cages today.

thanks

Kiln dried pine shavings. It's what a lot of us use all the time anyway.

I just use the same aspen bedding i use for my snakes.

Sorry, but you are wrong. :colbert: Kiln Dried Pine (shavings or pellets) is what probably 90% of rodent breeders use.

Would ANY pine product work? NOPE. As long as it is kiln dried tho, you are good.

I done this also I also consider using the aspen from when I clean the snake cages ( I clean all the cages on a given day even if they don't need it ), SO I would have usable aspen for the rodents. FOr the most part I just get a largest bag of pine were every I at and go with it . the asf/rats don't care they chew eh stuff into dust either way.

I always do a 50/50 mix in my rodent tubs of pine shavings and equine
