Breeder's Choice Packaged Woodshavings

Breeder's Choice woodshavings are a high-grade product which is suitable for use as a bedding litter in horse stables, chicken nests and sheds, calf sheds and various other animal enclosures.

Our standard bale weighs 14kg and provides approximately 0.2 cubic metres of volume when uncompressed.

The benefits of our baled woodshavings are:

  • Screened & Dust Extracted:

    Our shavings have been screened to remove harmful dusts and reduce the incidence of reactive airway disease in animals. Using a purpose built ‘trommel’ screen, we are able to remove a higher proportion of the sawdust and ensure we are producing a superior quality product.

  • Kiln dried for better absorbency:

    The woodshavings are a by-product from the timber milling process and have been kiln dried to achieve a moisture content of between 8% and 12%.

  • All-natural product:

    The shavings are all natural and free of any chemical additives.

  • Clean & hygienic:

    We use our own trucks and trailers to transport the raw product. Our trailers are only used for transporting our shavings, which reduces the risk of contaminants in our shavings.
