Description
Keep your hens comfortable and your eggs cleaner with Premium Aspen Excelsior Nest Box Pads (13” x 13”, 10-Pack) — proudly made in the USA using sustainably sourced materials. Designed for both backyard chicken keepers and professional poultry operations, these pads offer a cleaner, softer, and more hygienic nesting environment, ensuring healthier hens and fresher eggs every day.
Eco-Friendly & Sustainably Sourced:
Each pad is crafted from 100% natural aspen excelsior, sourced exclusively from Sustainable Forestry Initiative–certified suppliers. By choosing these nesting pads, you’re supporting responsible forest management and helping reduce your farm’s environmental footprint.
Hand-Inspected for Quality:
Every pack is carefully hand-packed and quality-checked by our team to ensure consistent thickness, even texture, and properly attached kraft paper backing. The result? A durable, well-made pad that stands up to daily use while keeping your hens cozy and content.
Cleaner Nesting Boxes, Happier Hens:
Tired of messy nests? These ready-to-use pads make nest maintenance quick and easy — simply lift out old pads and replace them with fresh ones in seconds. The aspen fibers naturally absorb moisture and help control odor, maintaining a clean, sanitary laying space your hens will love.
Easier Egg Collection & Fewer Breaks:
Unlike loose straw or pine shavings that let eggs roll or hide, our excelsior pads keep eggs elevated and visible, reducing the risk of cracking or contamination. You’ll spend less time searching through bedding and more time collecting clean, intact eggs.
Natural Ventilation for Dryness:
The interwoven aspen fibers promote airflow within the nest box, helping droppings fall away and allowing moisture to evaporate quickly. This keeps both hens and eggs dry — a crucial factor for maintaining shell quality and flock health.
Universal Fit for Most Nest Boxes:
Each pad measures 13 x 13 inches and can be easily shaped or trimmed to fit most standard nesting boxes. Whether you’re raising layers in a backyard coop or a large-scale operation, these pads deliver consistent comfort and cleanliness across all setups.
