We are around the Charleston Area in SC. We are having the hardest time finding straw for the duck house. Everything is pine straw around here for sale. I know we can use pine shavings, but we just don't like them. They don't break down as fast. Does anyone know where to get straw? Online maybe? Has anyone used hemp bedding like for chickens? Is that safe for ducks? TIA!
 
Are there any horse people in the area? Ask them or look for a saddlery in the area and see what they recommend.

Meanwhile, I don't know anything about pine straw but pine shavings should hold up well and then break down effectively particularly if it's mixed with duck droppings. Pine cones and pine needles not so much.
