Bedding Wholesale?

Just wondering, I use aspen bedding for my snake, im going to be add to my collection this spring. Is there a website or something where you can get wholesale aspen? It gets kind of expensive buying it from petco.
 
Well Henry I get most of my herp needs at my Local super walmart
I buy my tubs for my herps there for real cheap
I also get my aspen there 1,500 square inches for 3.38$ I buy 2 bags a week becasue I change bedding every week for my small snakes and sometimes twice weekly for my larger snakes like my Taiwan. I suggest you go there. Petco makes their money from ripping of herp keepers by putting a picture of a snake on the aspen
 
I also buy my aspen at Walmart, same as young SnakeMaster up there, I buy those two bags at $4.00 a piece and this tides me over well for the week or week and a half, sometimes 2 weeks. (I only have 4 snakes and I mix carefresh and aspen for my bigger snakes)

I bought a big bag of the small mammal aspen bedding from Petco once but opened it up and it smelled slightly like chemicals so I'm not buying that again- but there may be other brands of small animal bedding that you can buy in bulk... (I'll try to remember to check when I get home and give you the name of the brand I bought so you can avoid it)

I'm sure others will be able to give you more suggestions.

Good luck
 
If you have a farm and fleet or a tsc in your area they have very big bags for $10.00 it is about the size of a bail of straw it lasts us a long time and we have 7 snakes 3 10 gal a 2 20 gal a 29 gas and a 40 gal

we change them every other week have about ainch and a half to inches in each and that pach lasts us like 2 months if not more

Hope that helps
