Hi everyone!
I live in Baton Rouge, LA and I was wondering if sand is a good idea for coop bedding. I use aspen shavings mixed with zeolite in the coop and timothy hay in the nesting box. I like to use hay in the nesting box, but sand would majorly decrease the amount of deep cleaning I'd have to do and amount of dust in the coop, I'd just need to poop-scoop.
Is sand a good idea in such a hot, humid climate? My coop is an Omlet Eglu, so the birds are not standing on the bedding itself but rather on a plastic roost grid above it.
TIA!
