Herdd Animal Bedding

Please Note - This Item is Pick Up Only

HERDD bedding is 100% natural pine bedding with no additives, giving your horses and farm animals soft bedding that is convenient, highly absorbent, low dust and environmentally friendly. 

HERDD bedding contains naturally occurring pine oils and hygroscopic properties which effectively reduce ammonia smells. Quick to place in situ, long lasting vs. traditional options (12+ months) and is easy to muck out and top up. Over the long-run we believe you’ll save time, effort & $$ with HERDD bedding.

Not only is HERDD bedding 100% natural, the bag is 100% compostable – use the empty bag as weed mat in your garden or throw it in your manure heap to compost. Alternatively, recycle it in council collection.

HERDD bedding is suitable for horses and foals, and all farm animals, including chickens, calves, pigs, guinea pigs, goats, sheep, rabbits and alpacas plus many more. 

• 100% natural NZ grown pine - low dust, no bark or additives, natural & hygienic

• Highly absorbent, hygroscopic properties - soak up urine with naturally occurring oils & that assist in reducing ammonia odours

• Convenient oversized 22kg bag size = less bags & less top-ups

• Swells to multiples of its dry state (approx. 4x) – get a lot more, long lasting bedding volume in each bag

• Long lasting – the unsoiled base bed, with good stable management & ventilation will last a long time (12+ months). We recommend 1 bag per fortnight top up, or as required

• 100% compostable bag – put it in your manure pile or compost bin

• 1 bag activated with water provides approx. 0.13 m3 of bedding. Therefore, 7 bags of HERDD bedding provides 1 m3 of bedding

• For an average sized stable (4x4m), we recommend making a bed base with 7 bags (if you have rubber floors), or 9 bags (if no rubber flooring)

Show tip: Pack 2 or 3 bags of HERDD bedding in your truck or float for extra bedding in competition yards – ensuring your horse rests comfortably on a clean and fluffy bed before they enter the ring. 

Store in a dry place.
