Anyone interested in paper bedding??
ABC Chinchillas:
I have thought about it it came up at the WI MCBA meeting but I havent come across it yet at the feed stores. ALso I only pay 4.00 for my bag of pine
jmdebb:
wow thats great news you two.. how is it on odor?
ABC Chinchillas:
jmdebb I haven't tried it yet. just thought about it after the discussion at the meeting
chinclub:
So far I am loving it. It takes about 15 bags of pine to do my entire building and the pine smell is so strong is smells like ammonia. I am so happy to get a bedding that has no smell. I have the paper bedding in 10 banks of cages now (150 cages). It has been 5 days since I filled the first cages and it is holding up very nice. I haven't gotten all of the pine out of the building yet, the last of it will be switched to Aspen tomorrow. Then I will spend tomorrow night exhausting the building and bringing in fresh air. Hopeful the building will finally have a nice scent after that. With our heat and humidity I have been fighting the ammonia/pine smell all summer. I can't wait for cooler fall weather so I can throw open some windows and really air out the building!!! Even at night the temp here is still over 75 degrees.
