What is everyone using for Western Hogs? Has anyone tried that "CareFresh" bedding??? I think it is what it is called... its like ground up paper....

I use plain old sand. I've used Carefresh with mammals, but never with herps. I can't really see it being problematic though.

I use aspen with all three species of Hoggies that I have. I have wondered about the carefresh myself.
