Wood chips and bumblefoot

[DuckyDonna]

I have been reading a lot of these threads about fixing a muddy run. My run still has quite a bit of grass, but there are spots where the mud is starting to take over. For a quick fix, I've put some of the wood pellet brooder bedding on the worst spots, and it seems to help. But for a long term solution, I keep seeing recommendations of wood chips. While I love the idea, I'm concerned that it might lead to bumblefoot. Has anyone tried wood chips in their duck run? What has been your experience? Have you had any problems with bumblefoot?

Thanks in advance!

That's exactly what I've been afraid of but there are members that use them with no problems. @Isaac 0 is one I can think of.

I got 6 loads of wood chips this spring from various landscape companies. 2 of the 6 drops were great chips, nice little uniform chips. Some of the drops I got had sharp sticks and stuff like that in them that I wouldn't want to use in the run. If I get some good ones I'm going to give it a try.
