Same here for the brooder. My chicks are expected to hatch around the 8th of March. I start off with puppy pads for a day or two. Then I pull up pads and add this Fun stuff. I have to order the Koop Clean from a store that is almost 40 min from me. I know that it is totally worth the wait, time, and money.
I guess this sorta answers my question? I am using a brooder right now for 4 chicks and although I use Koop Clean in my coop was wondering if I should use it in my brooder? Can I add Koop Clean on top of shavings or clean out the shavings and just use Koop Clean?It really depends how you maintain the coop in between total litter clean-outs. For example, I use droppings boards in my coop and my birds free-range during the day, so regardless of the litter type I use, the frequency of cleaning out the litter is much less than someone who doesn't employ droppings boards. Similarly, I do not keep waterers inside my coop, therefore the litter stays dry and dry litter needs to be cleaned out MUCH less frequently than wet litter that results from spilled drinking water. I would suggest trying the product if you're intrigued. If you're already purchasing pine shavings, it's a no lose proposition. It will go farther and last longer than pine shavings. I use it and that is my experience with it. Oh, and mother hens and chicks LOVE the stuff!!

I appreciate the large fonts, especially at my age.
