Vigoro Brown Mulch

[Amber902]

I was wondering if it would be okay to use the Vigoro Brown Mulch in my chicken run.

I called and was told it is dyed but also safe for playground use and in vegetable gardens. I was also told it does not contain cedar. Do you think it would be okay to lay out in their run? The only places offering all natural wood chips near me want you to take an entire truck load which I just can’t do. No where to put it. Thank you!

Update: I just read that apparently I can just wash the dye off if it pretty easily.

I'd suggest getting pine bark nuggets instead, there's no way you can wash away the entirety of the dye (or why would they dye it in the first place).
