Starbucks gives their grounds away. People use them in their gardens.
Huh, very interesting! Thanks!
The using the coffee grounds ...for some reason I just don’t get it. It sounds sort it f purposeless. They seem too fine to absorb much poop and I am not a real coffee fan and grounds smell even worse they me so mixed with chicken - - - -. Wow what a great aroma first thing in the morning. I would hate to have morning sickness and have to do coop chores. Not good! That is just my personal take on it.There's a few of us wanting to buy it (yes it's a bagged product being marketed for animal use) but finding it seems to be the tough part.
Yes you could go to Starbucks and hope to get a big bag of used grounds but 1) I at least have a hard time actually finding a Starbucks bin that hasn't been stripped bare and 2) I'd need to figure out a way to dry them out, as coffee grounds can get moldy.
Could you spread the grounds on a cookie sheet and put them in the oven to dry? Imagine the smell in the house!!There's a few of us wanting to buy it (yes it's a bagged product being marketed for animal use) but finding it seems to be the tough part.

it would smell like dry and maybe burnt coffee grounds. I can imagine that very well and it’s bringing back memories of the Great War...Could you spread the grounds on a cookie sheet and put them in the oven to dry? Imagine the smell in the house!!
Starbucks gives them away for free here. (My Starbucks store)I think some places sell them or give them away but I’m not sure
Am guessing the manufacturer underestimated and/or overreached the market and now can't supply. I really don't see the function, tho I do understand the attraction, I love coffee and the way it smells.There's a few of us wanting to buy it (yes it's a bagged product being marketed for animal use) but finding it seems to be the tough part.
Yeah who uses coffee grounds? Do the birds eat them?
Quick question, does your coop smell wonderful?I use them. The brand is Grounds, I think, but I got it from Tractor Supply. The bags are big and 1 bag spreads over 24 sq ft. I got my bags for $8 each, I spread two in my coop a couple of months ago and haven’t needed to replenish. I scoop the poo every morning. My chickens don’t eat it, but the grounds are decaf. They were afraid to walk on it at first and had to be helped on and off their roosts bc they’re silly!
