Hi everyone!

Please answer the poll for your what you use in your coop...not run or brooder.

Wood shavings, mostly, though I have also used shredded paper. Leaves make a good bedding, assuming that they're dry, as do grass clippings. The birds love to scratch around in the leaves and grass most of all -- they know that there are bugs and other tasty bits in there!

Do you mix all of the above or use them separately?

It depends on what I have at the moment. Most often, it's a mixture of a few of those things.
Right now, though, it's just pine shavings. The littler ones have leaves in their coop.

Wood shavings with a good dusting of PDZ mixed in.

I live on a sand dune therefore the bare ground in my coops is sand.

I use (pine) shavings in my coop. In the winter I use the deep litter method with shavings.

I use pine shavings now and will always use wood shavings.
