stable bedding, what do you guy's use!!

[Gucci_b]

i have good stable mats, field guard but want good horse bedding, what do you guy's use and any good, i like big banks and a good base for the horse to lay in....

 

[piebaldsparkle]

Bedmax. Doesn't stick to everything and you can build huge banks with it!!!

Shavings

I did like the megazorb but it just seemed to compress together and dissapear, but it was so easy to muck out.
I like the medium sized shavings, you get big banks and they look nice and bouncy to lie on!

 

[Super_Kat]

Flax. Love it!

 

[Gucci_b]

hi, how you doing mate!!! I had bedmax and found to have a lot of waste with that bedding and dust...

 

[M_G]

Bliss bedding...it is truly heavenly and so easy to muck out

 

[piebaldsparkle]

Really??? Guess mine never lasts long enough to breakdown to dust as Sparks pees for England!!!

I'm fine and Sparks is hormonal!!!

 

[Gucci_b]

hormonal!!! my mare is a jorden with 4 legs diva!!! lol

Bedmax on earth floors, brilliant combination, I could sleep in there myself.

Shavings - if I use straw the greedy chap eats it ,here in Spain they feed straw and so when I first got here and made up the bed beautifully banked the locals thought I was barmy !!

Ecobed cardboard, i really rate it, lovely and warm, clean, doesn't break down to dust at all, very easy to muck out, mulches down brilliantly (or great for worm farmers!)

I usually use shavings but atm, due to being skint and a shavings shortage round here, I am using sawdust, which is free from the local wood yard. It comes in really big bags and I use 1 bag per week per horse, I have quite wet horses and the sawdust keeps the beds that bit drier.
I have mats in 2 stables and the other one is deep litter.

Flax, fab stuff and rots really quickly

Aubiose is brilliant but a bit pricey!!!! Presently using a 50/50 mix of shavings and chopped straw which our local tack shop stocks - cheaper and still quite good. Both of these go well on mats.

I use flax with rubber matting - I love it

 

[rubyred]

Ecobed on rubber matting, recent convert and very pleased

 

[clairencappelli]

I use equisorb which is flax and i will never use anything else ever again!

good old straw, with rubber mats near the door.
