Yes,..I've been looking for this "magical" substrate for decades too,..I think ALL of us have been..LOL!
I know exactly what you mean. I've just settled on Aspen for it's basic ease of spot cleaning, affordability, common availability, etc...but everything tends to have it's pro's and con's I guess.
However, I use radius cut paper towels for lining the bottoms of deli cups for young hatchlings, because the aspen substrate would always get into the tiny PVC cap water bowls. That was always very irritating to me..LOL!
Also, the lid of the deli cup is perfectly flush with the top of the cap, so when two notches are cut in the side of the cap, it allows their heads to go inside for a drink without them being able to spill it,...works out very well this way.
