Hi all, I have some big planters that the girls have repurposed into "dustbaths", they had bagged ground soil in them and I wondered if there was a better alternative. They are the felt type so they sort of slump as the girls fling the dirt out. Now that they are nearly empty I want to refill them with a better composition of materials for them to dustbathe in. Can you all give me some ideas of what (and maybe what not) to put in there for them? We have a nice sand/DE box in their run and they seem to prefer the ground soil or those containers. It isn't potting soil, no vermiculite or pearlite in it, just sort of the loamy stuff that comes in the bag for in ground use. I think it's the containers they like? Any advice would be really appreciated!
