Hardwood Woodchip

Do you have a muddy Chicken Run?

Are your hens in an enclosed run area? Are they scratching at bare earth or walking in mud all day? Does the chicken run smell awful? Perhaps you have heard that a surface of wood chippings is the solution, but which wood chip is best for chickens? You can find more on our Using Hardwood Woodchip information page.

Flyte so Fancy Hardwood Woodchip is a sustainable, play-grade, eco-friendly, and natural surface in your chicken run. A perfect 10-40mm particle size and minimum bark content (bark is not good in a chicken run). Just add a nice layer of our natural woodchip and you will have happy hens!

Your birds will love it. Scratching around looking for elusive bugs and worms keeps them entertained all day long. It will help to keep them clean, less smelly, and mud-free. Delivered directly to your door in handy 15kg (approx.) bags.
