Washable Nesting Box pads Review

[fatsGREENgarden]

I just wanted to share my success (so far) with washable nesting pads. I’ve been using them for 4 months now. I bought them on amazon- a pack of 6 was $27. Very easy to clean with a spray hose and we have yet to have a broken egg! I honestly didn’t think it would be enough “cushion.”
Does anyone else use these or have any issue with them? Curious what others think of them. I had used straw, but I found it smelled, stayed kinda moist at times and they kicked it everywhere..

I've used them as well as excelsior pads, shavings, straw and grass.
I like them but the chickens aren't as fond. I've never had a hen go broody on one but they do on excelsior and straw.

I have some...pullets won't use them. Instead they choose the boxes that have pine needles.
