Highlighted Reviews
"I had surgery the day after I got the baby chickens so it was ideal. I could keep it in my house and take care of babies while I was recuperating. It worked out fantastic for me. I loved it easy to use and care for."
"But, no way to control the odor from the poop because it just goes on top of the jute and sits there. Stinky. The trade off is... pine shavings come with dust, but does well to cover odor. This jute liner is not dusty, but it is very stinky! I won't buy again."
