Available Brands of Wood Pellets and/or Crumble Products

We can add Southern States Premium PelletBedding to the list. Our local feed store carries it. I'm pretty suremost Agway dealers carry it. I paid $4.95 for a 30# bag.

My TSC quit carrying Woody Pet.

They only have Equine Pine now. It's $5 for 40 pounds andlooks exactly like Woody Pet, but it doesn't say how it's processed.

They must be doing it nationwide because they quit carrying it at ourTSC, too. I thought about buying some of the Equine Pine but it smelledso strongly of pine that just standing next to it was starting to giveme a headache. That's when I went to the feed store to see what theycarried. They carry Woody Pet, as well as the Southern States, but Iwas told that the price for the Woody Pet was going to go up (it'scurrently $6.90 a bag) due to the cost of having it shipped in fromCanada. I'm guessing that's probably why TSC isn't carrying it anymore.

I'm using the Equine Pine and haven't noticedany strong odor in my bag. The rabbits haven't beenaffected. Believe me, if it bothered Snuggy, she would let meknow. I'd be cleaning up pee everywhere.

I thought any pine based pellets are bad? I passed on feline pine at walmart for this reason.

Pine is okay if it's kiln dried. Thatmeans it's heated so that the dangerous aromatic oils are drivenoff. I believe Feline Pine is kiln dried, although it's muchmore expensive than pellet litter bought at farm and feed stores.

Laura, if you scroll down this Q&A page for Equine Pine, it talks about how it's kiln dried. So it's safe.

According to the store locator, the Agway where I buy Woody Pet alsocarries SS pellets. I'm just about due to pick up a load so maybe I'llcheck them out. Always good to have backup, eh!?

These days it seems pretty good to have a backup plan, especially withTSC no longer carrying Woody Pet and the price going up at otherdealers.

I agree. I remember when I had trouble getting Woody Pet by me. I endedup loading up my car when I went to the Boathouse Party. There was aTSC in Amenia, NY that was on my way home from CT.

I drove out to the Agway yesterday. The manager advised me that theystock some of the Southern State products, but he wasn't aware thatthey made the pellet bedding, too. He gets stove pellets made by them,but he's limited to how much he can get and then it's mostly spokenfor. He said that he'll talk to the SS rep this week and inquire aboutthe pellet bedding for me.
In the meantime I picked up 12 bags of Woody Pet.

I've found another good litter for our UKmembers, Bio-catolet.http://www.thehayexperts.com/product_info.php?cPath=11&products_id=31

I started using it last week and I'm very impressed, it holds odorsvery well although it does smell a bit grassy when it has been used!

Also, I think woodypet is now available over here, somebody on aUK forum I go to posted aboutit.:?http://www.woodypet.co.ukI'mgoing to have to start looking for it!

 

[Pet_Bunny]

Bio-catolet seems like CareFresh.

If you can getWoodyPet that would begreat! Stock up likeJimD, you can't gowrong. Wonder howmuch they will be chargingfor a bag.

Rainbows!

I just picked up a new brand of wood pellets from a local feed store today.

It's call Armstrong Horse Comfort and it was $3.60 (Can) for 40 lbs.

I haven't tried it yet, but looks to be the same as all other woodpellets I've tried (Pinestall, and Firemaster). I'll updateafter it's been used.
