From the maker
Chicken coop bedding made from sunflower hulls: An upcycled, plant-based option for backyard chicken coops, poultry bedding areas, and compatible small-animal enclosures. Manufactured by Laketown Mills in Minnesota.
Absorbent bedding: Independent testing showed absorption of up to 436% of the material’s dry weight in water, helping manage moisture in animal bedding areas.
Low-dust texture: Cleaned sunflower hulls provide a comfortable bedding surface for backyard chickens, ducks, rabbits, and other compatible small animals.
22 lb bag, approximately 2 cubic feet: Covers about 20 square feet at a 1-inch depth. Deeper bedding covers less area; actual coverage varies with spreading and settling. Remove wet or heavily soiled material and replenish as needed.
Plant-based and compostable: Compost used bedding where appropriate for local composting and manure-handling practices. Store unused bedding in a clean, dry location. For animal bedding only; not animal feed.
