Mine is 'Holiday' brand..but doubt you get it down in the states as its made/packaged in Montreal, Quebec. I bought it from a feed/seed store.

Your best bet is to go to a garden center or feed/seed type store and by the big bags...I paid about $15 for a huge bag, probably last me a decade as I don't breed much. But the little bags they had were $5 and maybe would be good for a couple clutches of eggs... so for the cost of three of these little bags I would have over 10 times as much as three little bags..I went for the big bag.

Pull out your yellow pages and call the garden centers near you and the feed/seed places and ask if they have plain coarse vermiculite without any additives.
