I'm finding my latest bag of megazorb to really stink, and it's meaning that I can't spend a lot of time in the shed with N&T because of the smell. I know some people have had luck with them changing the bag back to the hessian style, any idea if any of the big suppliers online have the hessian style bags again? My local horse place has only just got the plastic bags in so I assume it'll be a good while before they get the hessian ones back again. I used to order from the hay experts so I'd be happy to order from them again.
I'm in a difficult situation whereby I live at home and my parents are very particular. I have an 80L (clean) bin outside which I decant my megazorb into and that's okay with my parents. I need an alternative to megazorb which will fit the entire bag in the bin, with nothing left over. I am not allowed to store any extra bedding anywhere else, it all has to go into the bin.
It needs to be biodegradeable as I put it all into the garden waste bin.
It also needs to be fairly cheap - I don't mind paying £15 or so to fill the bin up, but I wouldn't want to spend any more than that. I don't fancy wood pellet litter - I used it before and didn't like it as much as I like megazorb. It's too heavy and I dislike the wood smell.
So basically, does anyone have any recommendations that'll fit entirely into the bin?
I know of fitch... can anyone confirm whether that fits into an 80L bin? I know there's two sizes, 10 and 20kg - if you could say which one fits that'd be great. Same with aubiose and other hemp bedding, plus any other recommendations. No shavings, obviously. And I won't use just newspaper and hay, I don't like it.
Hopefully someone has some suggestions, I'm getting sick of this smell!
