And so do I. The hens like them because they can still fluff them up. I like them because they are easy to replace when needed and the hens can't scratch them out of the box when fluffing them. They last a long time. Much easier than cleaning and replacing straw or hay or wood chips or carpet pads or a dozen other things people use. Here is another tip for the home - chicken ranchers out there...in all the time I have had chickens, the best thing I have ever done is to use sand in the coop instead of hay/straw/woodchips, etc. I buy a couple of tons at a time from the rock/concrete industry. It is super inexpensive and keeps the eggs and the hens cleaner than any other medium. The hens love it. They enjoy a good sand bath. A nice thick bed of sand. I wish I had known decades ago. Shoveling soiled bedding is no fun. Using sand in the house and run and using these nesting pads in the hen boxes will make your hobby much easier and more enjoyable.

I only received nine of these pads (took them out to triple count), but I did like how thick they are. They come with a thin recycled looking paper attached to the bottom which is nice because then they don't stick together and it helps hold each pad together a bit more. They weren't wrapped in plastic and didn't contain any company branded paper as pictured and came loose, perfectly fitted in a plain brown box which is a win for me - less packaging seems like something I should get more behind! These are pretty thick (maybe almost a half an inch). I thought about trying to separate each into two pads, but chose not to because I thought I'd probably ruin them and make a mess. I can't speak to how the chickens like them quite yet as I only just now added them to my nesting boxes, but they look nice in there, fill the box well (my boxes are about an inch smaller these pads and the edges fold up nicely on the lower edge of the walls without looking too bulky or odd), don't smell weird, and look like they will protect the eggs well. Fingers crossed my chickens like them and this helps inspire them to start laying soon!

We have tried a variety of bedding and the ladies end up kicking it out of their box! The results have been the same; a mess all over the coop and broken or cracked eggs. A friend told us about these so we tried them. The ladies can’t scratch these nesting pads out. They last a surprisingly long time before we have to replace the pad (due to poop). Cleaning the egg boxes is easier because you just remove the pad. The pad is a heavy duty paper with chicken approved bedding glued to it. Poop adheres to bedding and bedding comes right out without having to scrape poop from the nest box. My only concern is the cost but after all the wasted money on rejected bedding, time to wasted on cleaning, and having no eggs after they all break; I suppose it’s worth it. We have 6 chickens and 2 nesting boxes. Our chickens tend to use one box more often and we order these about 2 times a year. We haven’t had any broken eggs since.

Handy to have … the materiel is comfortable fir the hens and they seem to really like it… dies not scatter outside the nest.

Exactly as described 👍

Works great for the chicken nesting boxes!
