How to use Aubiose bedding in a chicken coop?
Bedding for hens and poultry
Spread 8 to 10 cm of bedding across the entire floor of the coop. This layer creates a comfortable surface for poultry while making daily maintenance easier.
Remove droppings and damp areas 2 to 3 times a week. Completely replace the bedding every 4 to 6 weeks depending on the number of hens, the size of the coop, and its usage level.
Used bedding, mixed with droppings, can be composted directly to produce a high-quality organic soil improver.
