Title: Ground Walnut Shells
Post by: SpeedTek on November 21, 2011, 10:46:07 AM: I read other forums about finding Ground Walnut Shells cheap at Pet Stores. They mostly use them for snakes which we dont have here!

Anyone know where to find it at pet stores here?

Petco none.
Kalihi Pets $12.99 I think for 5 lbs (out till this Wed.)

The salesman said we don't have those in Hawaii so we don't carry it! I said OK. and left... He probably thinks I got them critters.

$15 bucks for 11 quarts. It felt like it was about 10 lbs.
