    Brands of soft aspen?

    I've been using this unknown brand with huge aspen pieces that are hard as heck. It's caused problems for my BEL and now I'm pretty sure it's causing problems for my dum. :\

    Can I get some recommendations for brands that have the soft fluffy little pieces of aspen that's safe for snakes?

    I've been using lignocel for a few of mine, it is soft and the pieces are small.

    I'm getting the feeling lignocel isn't found in the US, or at least is under a different name...

    Definitely Harlan is the best I've found. I'll likely try to pick it up at the next show, that or I'll try to buy a bag from Tim or Sean.

    I think it'll be great for them. Smaller pieces, softer.. however I do find that it sticks to EVERYTHING fabric-wise. Fluffy things are the worst.
