I have a big Tb gelding who drinks and pee's a lot due to various issues. He is out as much as possible but as he can't cope with grass it's often better to bring him in. I have, up until now, got by on a shavings bed and more recently shavings with wood pellets under it. Not entirely happy with it as it does get dusty so looking at alternatives as I will need to think about putting a bed down for winter. He also likes to wander round his stable which mushes his bed up nicely. I have found that a big deep bed is best and ideally I'd like to deep litter and only remove the wet twice a week (I managed this on a shavings and pellets combo, however I was using 2x each every week and in the end it was all one big mush of dust and soggy shavings) and I am wondering if there is anything else out there that might suit?
I have seen chopped straw locally and looked at Nedz Bedz Pro this am online which sounds ideal (but isn't avail locally so would involve a hike to go get it) - would chopped straw do the job? If so which brand do people recommend?
Any other suggestions?
