alih Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 I have been using bark chippings but reading about hemcore so have just bought some but have now read on a thread somewhere that people use chippings if their run is not completely covered...does the hemcore need protection from rain or is it ok just to put it down like I did the chippings? V. confused! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 It will need a cover over the run as it is super absorbent and will soak up the rain. Having said that, it is much better for absorbing the poo, which bark doesn't do so well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
