not heard of anybody using it to be honest. I think its responsible for causing impactions if eaten, and i dont see any real benefit from it. soil/sand retains some humidity and creates microclimates. Thats all i really use, i know some use hemp, aubiose and similar stuff.

I geuss whatever you use you will need to feed from a slate to prevent impactions anyway!
