Best substrate?

Equisorb looks more like hemcore or aubidose to me It should be fine to use

I use Megazorb too. Like Holly I get it off Sue whenever possible and Green Mule in between. I use Easybed for the Lh males.
I have 2 bales of Finacard in my shed but am keeping it for the rabbit and guinea pig because I do find the hamsters pong when I use it.

Is Megazord very much like Carefresh? They look similar. I'm happy with the Aubiose but I always thought Megazorb looked nice and soft. I just don't want another Carefresh experience :\

Basia have you had any problems with easy bed? i use it all the time but the last bag iv had has loads of plastic in it

I've found Farmway the cheapest for my Megazorb - it's under a tenner delivered, although oddly it works out more expensive if you buy in bulk - the only way round would be to order two single bags at once, which is a bit strange!(CLICKY HERE)

It delivers in about 3-5 days, not the fastest, but as long as you're organised, it's cheaper than Green Mule and UKPS. Anyway, Megazorb is my favourite. Carefresh works out too expensive, and Aubiose upset my asthma. My neighbous are now getting used to the random sacks which they kindly take in fo me when they get delivered when I'm in work - I'm sure they don't believe me when I tel them it's hamster bedding though!

just tell them it's a dead body your stashing for your mate

i think my neighbours think i'm nuts. one week my neighbour took in a gabber rex cage 3 days in a row! i ordered one ready for Hannah and then we came home with Jake as well so i ordered another and then i needed another! crazy hamster lady!

i might just try that website

I found Megazorb at my local farm shop when I went to fetch the piggie's greens this afternoon, it was only £4.85 so as soon as my bale of wood shavig's finished I'm going to buy some - I reckon it's okay for the piggies too :P

The advantage of being able to collect it locally would be if it stinks I'll just take it straight back, in fact I'll open it up in the shop lol they will REALLY love me now!!!

[Basia]

Not so far, thank goodness. A bale lasts me ages though because I only use it for the LH boys, everyone else has megazorb.

When I used megazorb I found it a bit smelly (not a really bad smell like people mention, but it wasn't very pleasent either) and it was really dusty too which put me off it. I've been using aubiose for months now and I love it. My sack is almost gone now though, and I don't know whether to stick with aubiose or try megazorb..I can't have both, I struggle to fit one in here.
