Allergic piggie needs new bedding
I have a one year old rescue piggie that I adopted about a month ago. They told me that he is allergic to wood beddings and that he would have to be kept on Carefresh. He is in a separate cage from our other piggies because it's only a 2x4 cage with three pigs already in it, and because we're using kiln dried pine right now. I'm not happy with the Carefresh in his cage. It's a large store bought rabbit cage, I'm planning on building another C&C cage. The morning after cleaning his cage it already looks and smells awful. Poops sit right on top of Carefresh and it seems to stay wet and never dry out.
My question is, does anyone have a recommendation for a bedding, maybe pelleted, that would work for my little guy? I need something he won't be allergic to, but that will help with the smell and poop situation. I currently clean the cage every 4 or 5 days, and I use half a bag of Carefresh (50 liter) each time. It's also costing more than I would like.
Please help?!?!?!!?
