Opinions on cardboard bedding . . . ?

Want to change from shavings to a less dusty alternative. Opinions wanted on what cardboard is like as an equine bedding eg Ecobed or similar ???

I really really like it! I have Ecobed on rubber mats. Very easy to muck out, you can find every bit of poo, and very absorbant.

Cardboard is fantastic! It doesnt stick, it is non-dusty, easy to muck out as you can find every bit of poo and identify the wet. Its warm and comfy to lie on.

I have bedexel as I cant get Ecobed in scotland.

My horse cant tolerate anything else. Highly recommend it.

i have Ecobed and love it too... actually about to order a few more pallets, so can prob combine an order if you want, if they're sending an artic here to me and you're in the same area. it works out about £5 - £5.50 a bale ish, depending on how many pallets you have.
it's warm, no dust, doesn't break down to dust in time unlike shavings, very clean, lovely stuff.
pm me if you want me to check out about combining an order.
