So what does everybody use? Vote on your type, then post about your brand and your opinions on other brands or types.
I started researching several of the wood pellet manufacturers and found something interesting.... quite a few of them are now producing the smaller consistancy product in addition to the larger one.I use Woody Pet, but the last bag I've been using (which I had stored in the basement for the last 4-5 months) is useless. The pellets broke down and there is no absorption value to it at all. I have to change the litter boxes daily, and they still smell of urine. I'm thinking of switching to another brand if I can find one that's not too expensive.
I am SO glad you posted this topic!
The pet store we got Jack from insisted we buy him PINE shavings for his cage because it's "so safe" for him :shock: I found out TODAY from the SPCA that Pine (and another but I can't remember which one off the top of my head) is actually dangerous for rabbits and can cause them to become ill! I was so upset when I read that and actually plan to call the store and tell them to stop misinforming their customers because if something had happened to my rabbit due to him using the wrong bedding (which their store basically made me get and almost made me feel stupid if I didn't), I would have held them completely responsible for any bills I acquired.
But thank you everyone for posting what you use because we need to go to the store today and get some new stuff!
I wish the Agway's buy me carried their brand of pellets. I called around and none of them do. I even had my relatives in the outlying areas check the Agway with no luck.I use Agway Pelleted Horse Bedding for the pull-out tray in their cage, but their litterboxes have newspaper in them.
Hi Aurora! There are so many plants in B.C. that make wood pellets. The key word is Kiln Dry Wood Products. Is there a Home Hardware near you? I founda product that they sell, called Dragon Mountain (Product of Canada) costs $4.50 Can. in a #40 bag. The pellet size is larger and not as broken up as Woody Pet.I use Pine Stall, only $9 can. for a #40 bag.
