It Says... 'A long lasting, chewable play tube, made from a special, safe and environmentally friendly vegetable parchment.

If you go to that site, and check the classified ads, there are people with excellent wood for sale that is safe for your chin. One lady has apple wood that is fantastic and Pet Products By Nature has pretty much any other kind of wood you can think of. Pecan is a huge favorite here because it has thick bark and lots of chewing. If you want this for a hidey house, a PVC tube covered with fleece will last longer, is washable, and is a lot better investment. You can hang it with chains or drill holes in it and insert screws and washers to hold it in place. You can also see those on CnH with examples to look at if you want to build your own. There are very, very few things that I recommend for chins from pet stores. Two types of feed (Mazuri and Oxbow), one type of hay (Mazuri), and pine, aspen, or Carefresh Ultra. That's about it. Other than that, I don't believe the pet companies are at all interested in the safety of my chins. They just want my money.
