Incidentally, I think your web site is really good. And trust me, I don't say that lightly.

Mud Management
If you keep chickens or ducks you will come across the problem of mud sooner or later. We believe we have found the perffect solution and the before and after photos (the trees show it is the same pen) tell the story. The solution is so simple that it is simply wonderful.
All you have to do is cut weed control mesh to the right size of the pen and cover with rubber chippings to a depth of about 4cms. Done!
Once down it will last for years as the rubber is virtually indestructible and the mesh will prevent it from being lost in the mud underneath. The rubber does not absorb water and so does not freeze.
When they first arrive the rubber chippings will smell slightly of rubber tyres, but that smell will go within the first day. Think of new car tyres that smell new when they are first put on, but lose the new rubber smell almost immediately.
If the rubber gets mucky you simply hose it off, or let nature’s heavy rain to the work! If you add a disenfectant, such as Barrier or Jeyes, to the hose water it will keep the pen clean and fresh.
The rubber chippings are down all year and warm up in the warm days. The hens seem to like the warmth, especially as they do not heat up too much on really hot days.
The rubber chippings are £9.50 per square metre. They are black and will be in sealed bags of approximately 10kg. There are 2 bags per square metre to give an average depth of 4cm of rubber chippings. If you need the mesh to go underneath it is £1.20 per pen square metre, but you will be given enough to allow for an overlap if more than one strip is needed.
We supply the mesh and chippings in the exact quantity you need. Click on the link to take you to the Mud Management site which will work out the quantity you need.Mud Management
