What is the best bedding to use for a chinchilla? I have heard bad things about kiln dried pine/aspen, about Carefresh and other expanding beddings, paper pieces, fleece, etc. I'm just trying to prepare for my best for my new chinchilla.

You will find negative reviews of almost every product if you look long enough. Aspen, CareFresh or kiln dried pine shavings are all acceptable choices for bedding. Use what works best for you and your chin and is easy to buy.
