The "right" answer is whatever works for your girls. I have used the Eaton-type pads and still do for a few girls. I like the Duncan's pads much better because, for me, they tend to stay inside the nest boxes and I like being able to hose them off when they get dirty. Admittedly, a few of my girls just get pine shavings.
I have never thought about using feed bags; I like the idea and may try that!
