- Azid has been on box rest for 6 weeks, 3 weeks on shavings and three weeks on wood pellets. After a few weeks on the wood pellet bedding from Blue Ribbon, it's safe to say it has delivered on its promises. We've only had to pop an extra bag in once a week which works out as £4.61 a week (individual bags are more expensive than a pallet), whereas on shavings I was spending £6.75- £10.12 depending on how much wet Azid was creating.
Pros:
Sustainable
Cheap-ish (Compared to shavings, that's around a £200 saving per horse, per year)
Low waste
Next to no odour
Easy to remove poo and wet (The wet is now a tiny amount and it kind of all holds together like play-do)
Cons:
Can get dusty if you don't add enough water
Doesn't look as pretty as shavings
Heavier in comparison to shavings to throw up
So all in all we're very happy after all our research that Blue Ribbon has met our expectations and wishes for a functional, comfortable bedding for our horses. Long may the lovely pine forest smell emanate from our stable.
Thanks for watching! Beth - Sport
Congrats on winning the contest! That bedding definitely looks like it's worth a look, especially with getting the dust under control. Kudos to Dan yet again for being such a supportive partner and an all around great guy!
Looks like such a lovely bedding and glad to see your hand is doing better i can't imagine trying to do horsie things with only one hand.
It's actually been awesome, really easy to do! Thank you, it's definitely challenging but I have lots of help at the moment so it's ok 👌
I don't prefer them . They stay moist if you have thrush problems it could contribute.. I work at a stable .. grab a handful it's still moist .pine shavings is my go to
Oh that's a shame for you, I've used them for a couple of years now and they don't stay moist for me. I find them much easier to muck out and much less waste but I do love the smell and look of pine shavings! x
