The performance of the chickens is compared to that of a control group, housed in the same building on very neat bedding. The appearance of pododermatitis is obvious. At 21 days, the leg lesion score reached 110 points out of 200 for the batch on wet litter against 14 for the control batch. At 36 days, 99% of chickens show severe lesions against 2% for those on dry litter. At the end of the batch, chickens on wet litter are lighter and their consumption index is degraded.

As the delivery of bagged paper shreds allows you to receive 3 times more shreds than the bulk blown wood, you thus reduce by 3 times the number of trucks circulating in your yard. An average 2-storey building with an area of 40\u2019 x 200\u2019 receives an average of 9 deliveries of bulk shavings per year, while it will need less than 3 trucks for bagged paper shavings.<\/p>\n<p>(Trucks go from one farm to another and can spread viruses and diseases)[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=&#8221;13 cubic feet of pressed paper in a 2.8 cubic foot bag&#8221; tab_id=&#8221;1665195664526-5786ab00-176e&#8221;][vc_column_text]Unlike wood shavings, which compress very little, the soft texture of paper shavings makes it possible to compress many more cubic feet inside the bag.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=&#8221;Much more economical and safe than blown bulk&#8221; tab_id=&#8221;1665195679725-3e4386a7-dd7a&#8221;][vc_column_text]The impressive number of advantages allows the breeder to save money in several ways.

He must refer to the number of cubic feet listed on his delivery note.

With bagged shavings, the customer always repeats the same quantity of bags for each batch, which ensures uniformity in the desired thickness.<\/p>\n<p><em>*It is recommended to use the shavings spreader to spread and level the paper shavings because it has the ability to decompact and aerate the mixture in order to cover the maximum cubic feet and avoid waste.<\/em>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=&#8221;Allows you to receive 3 times more shavings per delivery&#8221; tab_id=&#8221;1665195683461-84174612-fb1d&#8221;][vc_column_text]The volume of a 53 foot bulk wood shavings trailer is 4000 cubic feet.

You must wait until the cleaning and sanitizing is complete and you must do this before the chicks are received, while allowing adequate drying time to reach the required humidity level. A truckload of bagged paper shavings contains the equivalent of 3 trucks of bulk wood shavings, which gives you the possibility of keeping the surplus in inventory and allowing you to start a new batch as soon as you are ready, without depending on the arrival time of the bulk truck.

Dividing the shavings into 3 batches makes it possible to level the floor more quickly. It is not necessary to place all the bags at regular intervals on the entire floor, 3 piles are sufficient since the shavings of paper are soft and easily malleable, the leveling tractor can therefore spread the shavings quickly and without difficulty. Following tests carried out with breeders, it only takes 3 people 20 minutes to divide the bags into 3 batches, open them and place the bags in the recycling bins.
