Which Type of Sawdust to Use for Bedding - Charly - 02-08-2015

You know there are sawdusts that are small like sand and those ones that are bigger. Which one should be used in chicken house?

The bigger ones are called wood shavings and the small powdery ones are saw dusts. Wood shaving is recommended because the birds can't eat them.

And remember to keep the litter as dry as possible to prevent diseases. Recommended litter depth is about 3cm.
