Good Bedding? (not fleece)

[Big Sky Piggies]

Hi there!
I currently use back to nature, paper pellet bedding, I've used it for many years with multiple guinea pigs, and they have never had a problem with it. My two current piggies Luna and Willow, both grew up with fleece (as it was the winter and I move them inside on fleece in the winter) and now that they are back in the hutch on bedding, they really dont seem to like it. I dont want to use fleece in the hutch as it is very impractical, and I cant use wood shavings as I had a piggie that got very ill from the dust, so I'm scared to use that now. Which bedding types do you use? Can u suggest any that I can buy in the UK? Thanks

I use a layer of newspaper topped with piles of hay in my boys hutch

I use aubiose or easibed depending on what I can get hold of. Aubiose is my favourite

I sometimes use aubiose which is hemp based and used for horses - I put newspaper down then the aubiose and then hay. There can be a little dust with the aubiose so check it but the hay stops it anyway - I also use paper towels in hay baths and hideys then lots of hay on top - my piggles use their hideys and hay bath as a toilet too so the paper towels easily soak up the urine - I change that daily and there’s no smell

Ordinary farm meadow hay makes a great base. £4 a bale at local farm shop and it lasts a long time. They eat it too

I've never heard of either of them, I'll look them up now. Thank you

I'd also second Lady Kelly and highly recommend aubiose or easibed. Like her, I really liked aubiose but couldn't use any longer. And easibed is also good but again I can't use it any longer!

Does anyone use Fitch? I found it and it looks quite good?

i used fitch, i found it to be very soft and comfortable for the guineas, although it does seem to look dirty very quickly
