Windy Ridge Co. Natural Chicken Nesting Pads – 10 Pack – Aspen Excelsior Bedding Hen Nest Box Liners – USA Made – 13″ x 13″

Excelsior poultry pads are manufactured from Great Lakes Aspen excelsior fibers and brown kraft paper. Leading hatcheries have used our Excelsior poultry pads for many years. Excelsior box pads help to provide stable footing for newly hatched chicks and poults. They greatly help to eliminate sprawl leg, which reduces the number of lost poults and chicks. Excelsior nest pads help to provide cleaner, fresher, better quality and more hatchable eggs. They are economical, easy to place in the laying nests and help in faster egg gathering. The eggs are on top, clean and fresh rather than having to hunt and dig for eggs as with some other products. They also draw moisture from droppings which drop to the paper below, out of the area in which the eggs are laid. Excelsior is an all-natural aspen fiber product manufactured from Great Lakes Aspen. The unique curled fibers with barbed edges gives the fibers an interlocking feature that provides uses in many markets and for diverse applications. Excelsior fibers are widely used in construction, filtration, and many other applications. The name excelsior originated in America and excelsior has been manufactured in the United States for over a century. In the United States excelsior has no other general name; however, in many other countries excelsior is commonly known and referred to as wood wool. In addition to being an all-natural product, excelsior fibers are 100% biodegradable, safe and easy to work with. We purchase aspen from only forest products companies who are members of Sustainable Forestry programs to ensure that the best environmental and forestry management practices are followed. Since Aspen is a self-propagating tree, it renews itself from its own root system, making it a good environmental choice.
