Hello,
After you posted on another dicussion about wood shavings, i thought i would let you know, what might help you in the confussion of wood shavings.
The link below states why wood shavings of cedar wood, and pine wood may be bad, for small animals.

On the other hand, i have known people to use pine and cedar products for years, and they have never had any problems with their small animals. The following site will say all to be said.

Its a matter of what you want to believe, and what you think is best for your animals.
My manager orders huge compacted bags of Aspen. But does tend to use wood shavings when the Aspen hasn't arrived.
