Title: good value, new packaging better
Review: I compared this aspen bedding to wood pulp based bedding for my guinea pigs. This bedding is a MUCH better value. I do find I have to change the bedding more often because the aspen bedding doesn't absorb as much, BUT the price for volume is so much better that I don't mind. My guinea pigs love it. When I first used it they trilled and hopped up and down all around their cage. It is not as soft, but it is soft enough and they seem comfy and happy.A note on the packaging, I purchased the 8 cubic foot bag in September 2012 and it arrived in plastic packaging NOT paper. This may explain the price increase people are talking about. It arrived completely intact with no spillage. I think a few dollars more is worth it to avoid the mess.
