has anyone ever tried this for your chin?
im scared to use carefresh, because i dont want him ingesting any and getting an impaction.
any ideas?

I haven't tried that stuff but they should have k.d. pine bedding in a green (kaytee) or clear (premier pet) bag. They might have some other brands too.

Why are you looking online if you're just across the street, silly?

I'm sure they'll have it. I haven't seen a store that didn't.

Not sure on the Avian Fresh. Website doesn't say there is anything else in it, but the kd pine, so that's good.

I use Premeir pet Aspen bedding for my chins, they seem to like it well enough. I am just afraid to use the pine bedding from petsmart because I don't know if it was actually Kiln Dried or if it has other stuff in it also.....

Aspen is safe for chinchillas so you can get that too. Just no cedar!

petco doesn't carry kaytee woodchips nor do they carry premier pet (besides a tiny hard chip like style called "easy comfort") any longer. all the wood chips have been transfered over to 'petco' brand either aspen or softwood. that blue bag your looking at is super tiny....may fill a litter box a couple times, thats about it - o and its also not a soft bedding its kind of like a corn-style bedding with hard little pieces - only know all this because i work as inventory manager at petco.
