Bulk newspaper?
Newspaper users....
Do you guys have a place/source you get this stuff in bulk?
Obviously I could buy a bunch of the Sunday papers, but that'd add up pretty quick.
Thanks in advance guys!

Re: Bulk newspaper?
You can ask family and friends to send you their old newspaper. I use mostly Aspen, so I can't really help you, but family and friends should be more than enough for most herpers.
Good Luck!

I'd talk with your local newspaper. They always have mis-prints/extra copies that they recycle but will also sell cheap! I've picked up a pallet of mis-print full Sunday editions for a local humane society for only $20. Their was probably 1000lbs of newspaper on the pallet.

Re: Bulk newspaper?
My mom buys the daily paper mainly for just the Sunday paper. She says it's cheaper to do it like that. I use all the newspaper from the days as she only gets the Sunday paper for the coupons.

Re: Bulk newspaper?
Thanks for the ideas guys!
I contacted my local paper and it appears that the "end rolls" are what is going to available from a local recycler they sell them to.
Just have to find out what it's going to cost me if I go that route.
May end up just having friends and family hoard paper haha

Re: Bulk newspaper?
We have about 100 boas I use news paper with. The balls are on cypress and aspen.
I have 3 friends that get the daily paper and save it for me. I'm on the edge of buying the craft paper the other big breeders do.

Re: Bulk newspaper?
I use Kraft, there's no big breeder deal with it.
It's real uniform and looks nice.
It can get rather expensive though.
