I used it a few years back when I started with hogs as everyone seemed to like it for hognose. HOWEVER, I noticed that carefresh, being VERY VERY DRY AND ABSORBENT would dry out my hognose's skin!!!! They would always be in their humidity box which is very odd for platyrhinos! Stick with aspen! That and newspaper is all I use now. Never any skin problems!

You getting some hogs, Sam? Do tell.
