Does anyone know if Bamboo shavings/mulch are safe for a pigeon flooring?

I have used sand on the floor in my brooders for the last few years without any problems. I use a sieve and hand rake to clean up their droppings. This latest batch of turkey poults started taking dust baths at 2 weeks.

You’ve bumped a pretty ancient thread, but many of us successfully use pine shavings.

Best of luck with your poults!
