These were the only options available at the time because Excelsior Nest pads were unavailable and other options were too expensive. This brand is so well made, and the amount of nest material is a generous amount compared to others. It's so wonderful I chose it! Generally, I find these Windy Ridge brand nest pads to be of high quality They're thicker and hold up better than Excelsior brand nest pads, which I've been using for This offers a generous deep layer of material for the chickens to nest in, and so far they've held up better than Excelsior to all the scratching they've been doing. If I need disposable nest pads in the future, I will definitely purchase this brand. I enjoyed the experience very much.
Ninety-nine percent) of these nesting pads exist. We love them because of their high quality and chickens seem to enjoy them too. It's definitely on my list to add more!.
As a result, I was very concerned about bumble foot and pine needles pricking the hens that are nesting The cedar has too much dust, and pine shavings and pine needles are what are in the poop area, so I didn't want to use the same stuff in the nest. I must say that these are really terrific. A easy way to install, and a simple way to.
A great choice for bird nesting boxes! Clean ones last a week or even longer, so the hens can use them over and over again. My nesting pads form to the birds' bodies as they use them, creating a cozy nest. I add fragrance herbs sometimes, and since I don't replace them often, the herbs do not go to waste. As an alternative to loose bedding, I use them in the tray as well. As soon as I shake the poo off, it lands on top of the pad, so I can replace it. In spite of this, you still have to replace the pads every few days because they eventually get dirty, but you can peel off the top layers when they are dirty and continue to use The last thing I did was to use them in my brooder for my baby chickens. Eventually, the litter kept getting into the water in the brooder, so I placed an extra large potty pad in it, and also added a couple nesting pads , spread the material out, and set up a water dispenser on one of them. We have solved the problem! After cleaning the water containers every hour, I was able to leave for a short period of time knowing the chicks had clean water available. Despite the fact that nesting pads appear to be a more expensive option than loose bedding, I still continue to buy them. It was worth any extra expense to have these around my hens and I feel that they are safe and natural for them. 4 of my horses are yearlings, and five have just turned two months old. Thus, only a very small number of birds. Thanks a lot.
In order to encourage my ladies (laying hens) to lay their eggs in a plastic grass nest, I replaced the plastic grass nest with plastic grass. It was an epic failure. As soon as they laid their eggs, they went bananas. It seems that as soon as I place these in three nests, they will scratch the materials out. Since I will just keep replacing the material, I guess I'm stuck.
We really like these nesting liners. They are a big hit with my chickens. My chickens have been in the coop for about two weeks now. It looks like they're still clean and in great condition.
A square with good quality, I can separate it into three layers, so I can use it nearly anywhere.
This has been the best method for my chicken My hens are happy and the eggs are clean when I keep them comfortable.
