Well I'm convinced! Bedding Pellets

My coop is basically a 10x10- how many bags would you suggest. I would try it with some PDZ. I am due for a FULL coop clean up this weekend so it would be the perfect time to try something new. I have 14 ducks in there from 8pm-9am.

My duck house is 4'x6' and I used 1 and 1/2 bags. I have nine ducks in there overnight.

Ok so I might want to grab 4-5 bags. Then I have some extra on hand. Thanks!

Well my bags are 40lbs.. see unfortunately, because i already had shavings i only took a bag... i have 17 ducks ..well 3 are crated because they are teeny lol i would say 3-4 bags, then see how it does from there, at first it won't look right but after awhile they break down into this mulch like substance.

Has anyone used them with ducklings, looking to see if they would work in the brooder as well as the duck house. Thanks!

I used them for my ducks and chicks, when I did it I lightly wet it so it fluffed up and then put it in. For the first day or so I put paper towel down so they ate the foood not the shavings (g) I cleaned the brooder a little every other day (or once a week if things were crazy ... That was a bit harder to clean but.... All else was good!
