The Oxbow brand bedding is incredible. I have multiple large, about 40 to 50 gallon tanks that I stack full of this bedding all the time! It holds tunnels easy, spreads out easy and is soft and very absorbent, way better then carefresh, the quality sucks. And Kaytee clean and cozy, a good soft bedding for hides only but way too dusty in large quantities. Oxbow is very low on dust. Mix this with some Niteangel mini-aspen and you'll have a mix that is soft, fluffy, and low on odor for even some of your smelliest animals! Take it from an owner of 7 mice and a Hamster and rescues. Do yourself a favor and buy this big bag over the smaller bags for the savings you'll get if you go through as much as I do, which surprisingly isn't a lot. It'll last you a while.
