can I use conifer clippings
« on: November 03, 2011, 09:41 »
Hi,
Can anyone tell me if it is ok to use conifer hedge clippings and pruneings on the floor of my run? I have just cut 3 small trees down and have this available to use, it has become a little muddy and I was looking to use it to dry things up.

Thanks for looking.

Mark

My girls love it under the fir tree. They make their dust baths in the fir detritus with no ill effects at all.
Go for it!
