Do you have a local refill shop? My choice was the fragrance-free non-biological liquid detergent sold at the refill shop. I'm sure there will be some other answers if you don't have access to a shop like that. I think fragrance-free is kindest with piggies because they are very sensitive to smells.

The Green Company This is a site I ordered from recently,they're eco friendly and cruelty free.They sell laundry sheets plus other things.They're non bio too so good for piggy washing.Ive only tried a sample pack so far but was thinking of ordering again.

I use white vinegar and non bio liquid or powder

I use Persil non-bio as my husband has sensitive skin and it works fine with piggy laundry too.

I use Sainsbury's non bio but I'm looking at eco eggs and will probably get one when my stock of washing powder has gone down.

They save a huge amount of money. Whenever we see the refills on sale we buy 3.

How does it work in a machine that uses very little powder/liquid? My machine works on very little water so I only need a couple of tea spoons of powder. Would whatever the eggs put into the water rinse out okay as I assume you can't lower the dose. I couldn't work out from the sales blurb how these eggs actually work.

The egg has the detergent inside in little Balls. You replace them after 50-70 washes. I have never had any residue left on anything yet. I'm pretty sure they've been designed with the modern machines in mind as they haven't been around for that long. I think it works on a combination of the water and friction inside the egg as you get little stones that go in.
