I know this has been discussed before but hoped to start a new conversation.
We have had chickens for a few years now but have not found a "good" bedding for the coop. We started out with
pine shavings but it was so messy and hard to clean out. We have been using sand (washed construction sand) for over a year now and have been fairly happy with it but we have been having breathing issues with our chickens lately. We don't know if it's related to the sand or not but have decided to change to a different bedding just in case. But what kind? I have been looking into Coop Klean but it's not available in our area and it's expensive. We would have to travel about an hour away to get it, which is not to convenient.
Are you happy with your bedding?
Thank you for your replies!
