We currently have a giant wasteland in the chicken area where our lawn used to be and want to cover this with wood chip, however we can't seem to find anywhere selling it in bulk. We are looking for enough to cover an area 3m by 3m, but the bags at places like B&Q are too small so we would need to buy about 10 bags at £8 each.

 

Where to you buy your wood chip from? We are on the Northamptonshire/Warwickshire border, but are fairly flexible travel wise. We would prefer someone who delivers though. Preferably looking for one of those massive ton bags you see on construction sites

 

Thank you

Hi, how much do you get for £8? Hens for pets do 18kg for £8. They are near j26 on the m1' near ikea if you fancy a trip. They deliver too.

Yeah, 18kg is the largest we've found- the £8 ones. We want something bigger really

I get mine delivered on a pallet from Flytesofancy as I need 10 bags to fill the run. The only drawback is the huge delivery cost, but I can't get anything like it locally and have decided it is worth it as it lasts for such a long time and does a great job in the run.

I'd try contacting a local tree surgeon or two as they often have a surplus and will drop a load off if working nearby. Just specify it's for chickens so you don't want anything with thorns / yew / laurel.
