No!! It is very bad. Use Aspen...Sean
Although I no longer use pine (and haven't for years) I used to keep all my burms and balls on it and I never had a problem. This was before I was told not to. Some of them lived strictly on pine for 10 years before being switched over!
I now use aspen and cyprus.
I haven't use pine yet, i was gonna use it beacuse i use it for my breeding rats so i have left overs.
I know that cedar is a big no no, but i didn't new about pine.
Thanks
