Bedding Best Paper Bedding Brand?

I don't know if anyone suggested this before, but for my absorbent layer I use wood pellets under my fleece. I think it works better than anything else. I don't smell the urine (and I have 6 sows), I only have to change the wood pellets every 8 weeks. One bag of 40lb wood pellet is about $5.

Thank you, but I don't have fleece in the kitchen area. c:

You could try Yesterdays news or Fresh news cat litter (or any equivalent product). They are recycled paper pellets, I use yesterdays news in my kitchens and it works great. It's very absorbent and has good odor control.

I love Fresh News for Cats. It's cheaper than the one for small pets but is the same thing in a slightly larger pelleted form. The nicest thing is, you can tell if there are dry pellets so you can reuse a lot of it when you clean the cage. I use it in about half of my cages and fleece in the other half. It's the best bedding solution I've found so far.

I just use recycled paper pellets, like @sallyvh, probably an equivalent to Fresh News, and they are very absorbent.

I tried these recycled hemp pellet things, but they crumbled when wet, and smelled quite strongly, not of pee, but of the hemp. It is now used in my sister’s mice’s cage (not sure about possessive plural form for mouse), as they don’t have their nose in it as much as my piggies do, as they sit up in houses up the walls of their cage, and it disguises the smell of their pee (which is quite strong).

What I used to use was Kaytee. I used to get them in bags that were huge. They came up over my waist. Since you only have one little place you might want something a bit smaller then what I used to get. Here is a link to amazon. I have found that this is a lot more soft then Carefresh and it absorbs pretty well.

I liked kaytee as well before i switched to fleece. I have heard that carefresh worked nicely as well. There are also some diys on youtube as well you can check out.
