imridethelghtng Apr 23, 2006 05:45 PM

Im looking for like a 50LBS bag. I have been using newspaper but thats not very absorbent. All i can find is the 1800cu" stuff.I really like aspen it smells nice,and clumps together when soiled. Any help would be appreciated.

Yea if you go to pets-mart, even wal-mart probablly and look in the small animal section they usually have a big assortment of sizes. Thats were i get mine, by all the hamster stuff.

contact harlan teklad directly, they have distributors nationwide and that's where I get mine for my rats. I also pick up my rat food while I'm there. The one down side is they require at least $100 orders but I buy my rodent stuff once every 2 months so all I have to make is the occaisonal trip to tampa to pick it up. I think the price is between $7-8 a bag so when you buy alot it saves quite a bit of money.

The Tractor Supply Store is the cheapest place I have been able to find the big bags of compressed aspen. I usually go in, pick up a few bags and put in an order for 10 bags. They are only $7.99 a bag there. I would end up paying that much for a little bag of aspen at Wal-Mart or most pet stores.
