This looks OK as long as there is no Cedar. But you are paying way to much. Do you have a feed/farm store locally. Anywhere you get horse supplies will have bales of pine shavings.

Looks o.k. to me

Should be OK but I agree it is way too expensive. Any feed/horse supplies store will have big ole bales for less.

For the first week or so of a chick's life, use paper towels. They don't know shavings aren't food yet and may die of blockage. After that then shavings are fine!
