There are a few brands that are similar... and the store I use does not always have the suncoast bedding in stock... but it is hands down the best value I have found so far.

I suppose it depends on the individual person's idea of "wrong". No one can deny that pine does adversly effect liver tissue, enzymes and respiratory health. However, not everyone sees eye to eye on how detrimental those effects are on the health and quality of life of rats.

My question is, if the snakes eat the ASF (or any other rodent) while they still have pine in their furs. Does that harm the snake?

I haven't seen any papers on what harmful effects pine has on snakes. I've seen it repeated many times that the caustic phenols and oils from CEDAR are an irritant to their skin and can be toxic, but I also havent spent time looking for the origin of the idea.

I say no way. Don't ever underestimate the power of a snakes digestive system.
