Best bedding for a minimal bed on rubber flooring

[cariadssogreat]

Hi all, I am putting rubber matting in for winter, and I am wondering what is really the best bedding to use if you are trying to use minimal bedding. I always used to use Aubiose about 6/7 years ago, but realise there is a lot of new bedding on the market.

Your opinions please.

Trying to keep the work light and easy due to health problems.

Thanks

I use wood pellets (like Nature's Best but many other brands out there) and put them down like a litter where the horses want to wee. Takes minutes to muck out and it is very light weight (also comes in lightweight bags so easy to carry).

I use megazorb. Very absorbent and easy to muck out.

Thank you both - will look into both of these.

wood pellets here too. They've made a MASSIVE difference as previously it was a full muck out of minging mare on straw! Now 10mins and I'm done (still a full muck out)

I use megazorb and only put down a "pee pile" in my cob's stable, but my TB x wont lie down on it so he has a bigger bed of bliss - I can fully muck out both stables in 10 mins
