Roosty's Chicken Nesting Box Pads x6 | Washable Nesting Pads Hens | Raising Poultry Ebook Included | for Chicken Coops, Nesting Boxes, Chicken Bedding | Chicken Coop Accessories (Green)

The hens used them right away and they help keep the eggs very clean. Bought enough to swap them out when they get dirty, although most of the time the mats just need to be shaken and they're clean enough.

Our girls have just started laying. We had a couple cracked eggs, despite trying to pad their boxes with straw etc. They would throw out the straw leaving the exposed wood and therefore laying eggs that would crack when it hit the wood. So had remembered a post with someone mentioning pads for their nesting boxes and quickly searched on Amazon and found these. We decided to go with the orange color since it is as close to the color red (which chickens like). When we received them I really had some doubts because they seemed a little to spikey and hard. Didn't think my lil momma's would appreciate the comfort I was trying to provide. But alas they loved them! They are a smidge to big for their boxes but it works just fine without having to cut them. My girls started using them right away and now No More Cracked Eggssss! We all know how precious eggs are now $$$$ 😊 The pads also seem like they will wash off well! Good price and a product that does what it says. Hard to find that combo in today's world! Definitely a Great Buy!

I wasn't sure about buying these at first. But the last few months worth of eggs are filthy. We have 9 girls so get anywhere from 3-9 eggs a day. They have 2 plastic coops and 5 nest boxes built in, but the little buggers will only use 1 nest box. They scramble over the eggs to lay their own but then cover the eggs with mud and poo. Not great. Since putting this stuff down instead of the sawdust we previously used, they now just lay an egg and leave. No more sitting tight annoying each other about whose allowed in the best box at what time. They're not cheap, but are easy to clean, I just lift them up and bang them on the side of the enclose which releases the dust and poo. All our eggs now are as clean as shop bought ones but without the price and with better flavour.

At first the pawpaw's chickens did NOT like these and I was about to send them back! It took a little but once they were used to the tougher material compared to the hay they once had... they use these with no issues. They are extremely sturdy, very easy to clean and easy to get into the boxes. Now pawpaw has no need to spend money on his nesting boxes! Take these out once in a while, wash them out and reuse! Wonderful idea! Great on the pockets!

Worth every penny. No more pooping in the laying boxes!!!
