onlydrakes4me Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 From what I've read you should use wood shavings or wood chips. But do not use large peices or fine dust. Cedar chips are good for nesting boxes. You should also have 3 to 4" of wood chips in the box. I would go to a pet store or a farm supply store.

benbosh Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 go to Tractor Supply or somewhere and get pine shavings. like 5 bucks for a big thing of it. dont use saw dust, it will suffocate the ducklings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLACKJACK Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 I goto Walmart and get the cedar shavings, they're red and white and pretty cheap. I've read that cedar shavings are better than pine shavings, they dry out better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
