Koala bedding

[celiap]

Anyone use it? I am looking for a bedding to use on concrete floor which horse definitely will not eat and which is dust free and I can have delivered. Koala bedding appears to fit this criteria but don't know of anyone who has used it. I would be grateful fo any information or other suggestions.

Aren't koalas endangered? Might make nice furry bedding tho...

Doubt this bedding is as soft as koala fur but perhaps that is what they are implying by naming it that

I think its called that because its the chopped straw with eucalyptus....

Is it cheaper than shavings nd dust free??

Just been quoted 30 bales delivered for £253.50 which seems expensive to me but I liked the look of the sample they sent as I think will be less dusty and lighter for mucking out than other bedding

I have used Bliss and Sundown, it is cheaper than shavings, although still pricey (I pay £6.68 for a bale of bliss, you get a lot in a bale though), and yes its pretty much dust free. The only problem is if you leave it down, I have some down in one stable left over from winter and that has got very dusty. But then its only in there for them to pee on...will chuck it away once I start bringing in at night.

Found Bliss and Sundown advertised but don't seem to be able to buy them from anywhere and haven't seen samples for comparison. Tried nedzbedz but horse eat it.
