I not only get use out of my snake aspen shavings and the snake poop, I raise my own mice on pine shavings and crickets on vermiculite and that generates a considerable amount of litter for the compost heap. My operation would not work for city folks, though. I am in a rural area surrounded by forest with only one neighbor several hundred feet away. So there is no one to be bothered by my hobbies.

A funny story; for awhile many years ago I temporarily had to live in an apartment while looking for rural land to buy, and during that time had a very difficult time with compostable garbage. It just bothered the devil out of me to have to throw it in the regular trash instead of composting it! At that time I did not have dozens of animals and their wastes as well. The very first thing I did once I had land again was build a compost bin; you might say I have a compostive-obsessive personality! LOL!
