jackie45 Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 I read today in that one could use cat litter in nesting boxes. I wonder what other hen owners might think. It's ten years since we had our cat and I seem to remember that the litter was a bit dusty and would that be good for chickens?

Patricia W Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 I wouldn't use any of the litter we have for the cat. Maybe the wooden pellets type in an emergency, but there's nothing to beat Aubiose in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 I wouldnt use it either - I dont see how that would be practical I do use the wood pellet litter in brooders and poo trays though - its good stuff! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickyhazel Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 We use shredded paper for our nest boxes - we use so much of it, it's great to have a use for it rather than having to throw it away or recycle it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
