It is not the price that makes the bedding ideal; remember, I did mention that i use "free" newspaper for my snakes, and I find that to be the best substrate because I can fully clean out after any bowel movements, etc.
No hard feelings. As long as people are not using aromatic cedar; that would be nasty because 1) it has such a strong odor as it is and 2) it reeks when urine hits it.
No one has helped me to understand why it is not OK to use pine for snakes, but is OK for rodents.. but it was not you that stated that.
Until conclusive evidence is found that proves that phenols are safe chemicals, I am sticking to the aspen. I would rather not expose my rats to that.
