I almost fell over when I saw the price of wood shavings at the feed store, and I started to think that there must be alternatives that I can use! Could I use grass clippings? I think I also read somewhere that I could use rags for bedding. I pick up my chicks tomorrow and I want to be prepared, but I don't want to plunk down $10 for bedding that will be used up in a week
Any suggestions?
