:Was wondering if shreded aspen will work. If not what is the best types of bedding to use?
:Thanks,
:J

Aspen is the only substrate I've used with my gila and I have no complaints so far. A friend of mine experimented with several substrates and ended up using aspen shavings as well. I don't feed him on the aspen (not worth the risk of ingesting substrate)
I believe Dr. Seward's book recommends sani-chips (which is a aspen product).
Good luck,
Chris
