How often do you clean/scoop the coop? I use hay and clean the coop twice a week. the pellets my be more work having to use water, having to prep the bedding before adding bedding. Thank you for the options
I have indoor rabbits and quail in stackable rabbit cages with wire floors that allow the poop and urine to fall thru to a poop tray below each cage. I was using a mixture of zeolite, unscented clumping cat litter, and play sand. I will try this instead, mixed with zeolite.
This is not a good method, especially for larger poultry, large breed chickens and turkeys. They will try to eat the pellets which can cause nutritional deficiencies, toxicity, and blockages in their digestive tract. The fumes from the pine can cause respiratory issues as well. Use hay, straw, newspaper (w/o petroleum based ink) or Flock Fresh (which is bagged straw).
Use this for my Holland bunny’s litter! I love it. Never any bad smell.
