What kind of coop bedding do you use?

[Pork Pie]

I use 8" of dried grass clippings / leaves. Just turn it over once a day, and change every six months or so.

Used to use pine shavings & then pine shavings & wood pellet bedding in the winter, because I seem to have a condensation problem on the floor in the winter. The last two years I have used Koop Klean chopped straw. It is expensive, but so much easier & lighter to shovel out in spring when I have like 3-4 bags of it in the coop. Doesn't seem to mat down like pine chips. Composts better also.

Pine shavings. They are fluffy and smell good. I also use them in my nest boxes.

I love Pine shavings, and I also use them in my nests.

Pine shavings, but I'm not convinced they are the best option! I don't do deep litter and feel like they need to be cleaned frequently. Plus, they do not break down for compost nearly as quickly as hay or straw. Hmm... maybe I should switch!

Why aren't quotes working?

I'm also an "other" I use corn cobb pellets. Extremely pleased with my choice so far.

Pine shavings with a little DE sprinkled in to be on the safe side

Hi, when do you sprinkle DE? everyday?once a week? Month? I'm starting to try this method.
