I think the moms find the shredded better for nesting but the chips are more absorbent. There are also pine pellets that are used in horse stalls. These are super absorbent and don't have the same issues as the fresh chipped pine.
There are other pelleted beddings I have seen used, so long as you provide the nesting mom some shredded something it should be fine. I provide my females straw in the winter...so they can keep warmer.
