Wood pellets - bedding pellets vs fuel pellets

[alsxx]

Sorry, I'm sure this has been done to death! ;-)

I use Verdo wood pellets for the neds, however I've just discovered one of the local country stores stocks the Verdo wood pellets (fuel version). Now the price difference is eye watering compared to where I usually get them from - the bags are 5kg's smaller, but I'm looking at a saving of £23.50 for 150kg's worth (which would start a new bed off and have some bags left over).

So the question is, does any one know whether the two products vary, in terms of suitability as bedding? I don't mind if the colour of the eventual bed is darker, as frankly it only ever stays nice and white for about a week anyway!!

Thanks in advance!!

Hi. They are exactly the same thing. Horse bedding is subject to 20% VAT and wood pellets for burning only have 5% VAT.

I used the verdo fuel pellets too only downside is possibly that you need more bags to start off and for the upkeep as the bags are 5kg smaller as you say but the saving is phenomenal!
