Biochar for Chicken Coops
Specially processed for chicken coops to effectively reduce moisture, odours, and ammonia, creating a healthier environment for your flock.
Our biochar for chicken coops comes in a 15l box. We recommend using approximately 1l per metre squared of coop, but every flock is different and over time you will find out what works best for your hens!
We recommend simply sprinkling a thin layer of biochar on the base of your coop, before topping with you choice of bedding.
Tired of smelly coops and endless clean-outs?
-
Less Odour and Ammonia: Its porous structure soaks up unpleasant smells and ammonia, helping to keep the air fresher and your coop smelling much nicer.
-
Soaks Up Moisture: Biochar absorbs moisture to help keep litter drier. This can reduce the risk of issues like footpad dermatitis and bumblefoot, while also meaning fewer clean-outs.
-
Fewer Pathogens and Pests: By reducing damp conditions, biochar helps make the coop less inviting for bacteria and pests such as red mites.
-
Holds on to Nutrients: Biochar absorbs and retains nutrients. Once composted, it can be added to your garden to improve soil structure, boost water retention and give your plants a nutrient-rich helping hand.
