Easichick Wood Fibre Bedding – 10kg for Pigeons, Chickens & Poultry

Easichick Wood Fibre Poultry Bedding – 10kg

A dust-extracted recycled wood fibre bedding made specifically for poultry, in a 10kg bale that a back garden keeper can actually carry. Enva, who make it, describe it as designed for commercial poultry, smallholders and pet chickens alike, and it carries Organic Farmers & Growers accreditation across the easibedding range.

The fibre is absorbent and free draining, and it lets birds dust bathe — a natural behaviour that keeps feathers in condition and helps control mites. It stays put rather than blowing about, and composts easily after use.

Performance & Benefits

• Dust free wood fibre, made from clean recycled wood.
• Biosecure and bacteria free, which Enva point out matters for unhatched chicks as well as adult birds.
• Absorbent and free draining.
• Allows birds to dust bathe as part of their natural behaviour.
• Organic Farmers & Growers accredited, so it can be used in organic systems.
• Doesn't blow around, keeping the coop and surrounding area tidier.
• Economical — a little goes a long way, and used bedding composts easily.

Suitable For

• Chickens, bantams and other poultry.
• Pigeons.
• A variety of small animals.
• Back garden chicken keepers.

How to Use

• Add to the floor and nest area at a depth of approximately 3cm.
• Change or replenish when required.
• Spot-clean damp patches rather than waiting for a full strip-out.
• Compost the used bedding, or spread it under the accreditation the range carries.

Specification

• Material: clean recycled wood fibre, dust extracted.
• Pack: 10kg bale.
• Accreditation: Organic Farmers & Growers, across the easibedding range.
• Made by Enva in the UK from recycled wood.
• Enva publish no absorbency, moisture content or coverage figures for easichick, so none are stated here.

Care & Caution
