Hi folks,
As my beloved Haflinger eats straw until he is left with no bed I have been using shavings for some years now. The cheaper end of the shavings market gives me shavings that don't last as long whereas an £8 bale of Bedmax, White Horse or similar large flakes seems to last longer. However, I was given some different stuff as a trial from Ireland last winter which looked almost like bits of bark  and lasted AGES plus was only £4 ish a bale. Does anyone else use this and where can I get it?
