Don't sulk Mojo Laughing
I'd have to use it all over the garden, as the hens free range, and especially like to poo by the back door. Mark of course doesn't mind at all when he steps in it Rolling Eyes

Do they Free Range Mojo or do you mean to put litter in the run?Maybe, seriously now but only for a second, woodshavings would be better highly absorbent and bio-degradable? Wink

If I leave the back door open , my girls sneak in and peck at the cat litter in the cat tray. They think it's edible - so I would not personally recommend using it in case its eaten!! Laughing
