Hay or Shavings

[BlossomSilkies]

I use shavings on my coop floor and in my next boxes. Seems softer than hay. Although honestly, I'm sure they will lay in either one.

Why not shredded newspaper? My chickens just started laying yesterday (earlier than I thought they would) and I needed to put a nest box in... I didn't have any extra shavings around so I used shredded newspaper in a pinch. If it's bad for them, I'll go take it out.
