Right now I’m using aspen wood chips. I know it isn’t bad for guinea pigs, but I’m sure other stuff (like care fresh, yesterday's news etc.) would be better.

Here is a list of different kinds of bedding I’ve gotten off of https://www.guinealynx.info/bedding.html and a few other websites:
Aspen shavings
Care fresh
Cell-sorb
Crown animal bedding
Eco Bedding
Megazorb
Soft-Sorbent Bedding
Wood pellets
Yesterday’s news (or any other recycled paper)

From personally experiences what do you think is the best bedding based on price/absorbent/dust etc.? Feel free to suggest other kinds of bedding. I just want the best for my piggy. :)

Also, I only have one guinea pig at the time, but I am planning of getting one or two more in the future.

Thanks!!!

most likely fleece is safest and cheapest but it takes a lot of cleaning and you need to change it out like every 2-4 days or it may smell

If you'll search this site for bedding and look at the posts in the last two months, you'll find hours worth of reading of people's opinions on what is the best bedding.

Yes, it can be frustrating to answer the same questions over and over, when the answers are here for anyone to do some reading.
