Hi all. I currently have my guineapigs on Chipsi which is a wood shavings type of bedding. I have recently discovered that this kind of soft wood bedding is a health risk for their respiratory system and as such i am eager to change to a healthy bedding option ASAP.
My local store only sells this and Carefresh natural. I have done a lot of research and hear a lot of good things about this paper bedding so i am keen to switch, however i very occasionally read that there is a risk of impaction if they eat too much of this bedding. I hear that it is often a popular choice of bedding and I was hoping to get some advice from anyone who might have experience with this paper bedding?
I cant seem to find information on this impaction risk other than it is a potential risk. Most information i can find about Carefresh is saying that it is a safe bedding option. Maybe im just a bit apprehensive, I just want them to me safe.
