HAS ANYONE USED WHITE HORSE BEDDING ( THE STUFF THAT COMES IN PELLETS, YOU WATER, THEN IT FLUFFS UP), I CURRENTLY USE SHAVINGS (WITH RUBBER MATTING) FOR MY FAT PONIES THAT EAT STRAW AND HAVE PRICED UP THIS STUFF - SO MUCH CHEAPER, BUT HAS ANYONE ELSE USED IT AND HOW WAS IT? RATHER GET OPINIONS THAN ORDER WITHOUT TRYING

There are a few threads with quite a lot of feed back on these. Try doing a search for wood pellets.

Iv been using these pellets since january, and yes they did get some getting use to. I have good rubber matting, and i put approx 5 bags down to9 start a bed. What i do is put 2 bags in a wheelbarrow (empty in to it) pour to 5 gallon buckets of water and let it soak for around 20mints. empty into stable and rake out. repeat untill you have the bed you want. The droppings are so easy to collect each day, i dont dig for any wet, just lightly rake over the suface. Then when it looks as if the bed is wetPobably after 10days i would remove the wet patch, rake the bed over again and if needed add some more bedding. I find its working great for ponies, not as good for the big horses, as they pee a lot more. If it gets a little dustry(dry warm weather) i just sprinkle a little water over the bed with a watering can.
