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.

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

your probably mixed up with snakes. Your not suppose to use pine with snakes because of the oils.

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.
