Bedding Profiles That Fit Real Programs

Medium Flake

A balanced choice for most barns—enough loft for cushion, enough surface to absorb quickly. Ideal for daily equine use and mixed species operations.

Large Flake

Higher loft and plush stall appearance. Show barns and sensitive horses feel the difference under hoof; mucking remains efficient thanks to visible wet zones.

Fine & Blend

Maximizes surface area for speedier moisture control—popular for poultry houses, smaller livestock, and targeted refreshes near waterers and entry points.

Comfort, Health, and Time Savings— Designed In

Absorbency That Protects

Drier top layers help limit hoof softening, reduce slick mat issues, and curb ammonia irritation around eyes and airways. Well-managed animal bedding shavings translate to calmer stalls and more consistent footing.

Low Dust, Better Air

We screen to reduce fines that can trigger coughing or discomfort—important for animals and humans alike, especially in closed winter barns and during peak training cycles.

Predictable Performance

As a disciplined kiln-dried shavings supplier, we control kiln cycles and screening so each load behaves like the last. That predictability shortens learning curves for new hands and keeps routines efficient.

Built Around Equine, Livestock, and Poultry Needs

Equine Stalls

Soft underfoot, easy to pick, and neat in presentation—your aisles look cleaner, and stalls are faster to reset between rides or lessons.

Dairy & Beef

Absorbent base layers support udder hygiene and reduce bacterial load; top-offs are quick, and deep cleans stay on cadence.

Poultry Bedding

Fine and blended profiles help manage caking, speed resets, and improve house freshness during high-humidity weeks.

Small Animal & Companion

From goats and lambs to rabbits and pets, consistent animal bedding shavings help keep pens tidy and odors at bay.

Practical Sustainability— A Circular Fiber Story

Cox Shavings is part of a simple, sensible loop. Responsible logs become finished millwork; clean by-product becomes kiln-dried shavings; short supply lines reduce miles and variability. The result is dependable bedding that supports animal welfare and respects regional resources.

Quality Assurance You Can Trust

Each production run is checked for moisture range, flake uniformity, and fines percentage before packaging. Randomized bag pulls confirm consistency across pallets, and bulk loads are visually inspected during loading. These controls make your bedding program more predictable—no guessing, no surprises—just steady performance in every stall and pen.

Storage & Use Tips for Best Results

Keep bales dry and off ground contact; use breathable covers for bulk
Rotate first-in/first-out to maintain freshness and consistency
Ventilate, especially in winter, to manage humidity and odor
Top-off high-traffic zones to extend time between full resets
Place finer blends near waterers, feeders, and gateways for quick pickup

Small habits compound into better air, better footing, and less time on the fork.
