Making your Own Pine chips for bedding

[jazzpurr]

Hi All,

I have lots of pine trees and a 6 HP chipper.
Has anyone made their own pine chips? I just wanted to know if
you have to let them dry out and for how long? I can see the chickens with
pine chips stuck all over them and me trying to clean them off.

Instead of Tarred and Feathered they would be Sapped and Chipped.

I really would like the only cost to be Feed after they start laying.

Anyone tried their own chips?

Thanks for all your help.
