Camphor Laurel woods shavings in coop

[Jackie Boell]

Hello
My husband (a woodworker) has kept Camphor Laurel wood shavings aside for the chickens. Does anyone know if this is toxic to the chooks? Thank you!!

Camphor toxicity is a reality. I guess it all depends upon the oil level in the shavings, but I would be reluctant to use it in the coop.
