Looking for a source for aspen?

Where do you guys get aspen in bulk? I currently use newspaper but would like to switch over to aspen. I am having a hard time finding aspen for a decent price.

John,

I Emailed teklad who is a manufacturer of lab grade aspen and sani-chips.
The reply I got back was from a lady named Courtland at a company called coldbloods.com. Here is thier contact info: info@COLDBLOODS.COM
PH. 617.694.8436

Hope this helps.

Jeff

i get mine from petsmart.com they are pretty cheap per biggest bag and when you spend 50.00 or more they give you free shipping. just go to there website and you will most likely see a free shipping offer if you spend the 50.00 bucks. i think it the best way to get it shipped and for free. also if you find a website that offers it cheaper they will price match the item. let me know if you find a better deal.

happy hoildays!

Check your phone book for your local feed store - they usually carry bulk aspen.

Coldbloods.com is who we use, they are out of Mass. 4 c.u. ft. bags of the best shredded aspen you can get for $10 a bag. Hard to beat. Courtland is a great guy and will treat you very well.

Ouch, my mistake. I should not have assumed that Courtland was female. Hopefully someday my knuckles will stop dragging on the ground. I have not spoken to them in person, honest mistake, you don't think she, I mean he will charge me double do ya. LOL
