Nesting Pads for Chickens- Chicken Nest Mat - Chicken Nesting Pads

 

  • Collect Your Eggs with Ease: Our chicken nesting pads feature a plush, pillow-like thickness, designed for easy and efficient egg collection while minimizing egg breakage. 

  • Fresh & Clean: The aspen fibers in our excelsior nesting pads help draw down moisture to the kraft paper and create a fresher, cleaner environment for your hens to lay their eggs. Ditch the pine shavings in your nesting boxes and keep your chicken coop maintenance a breeze!

  • Sustainably Harvested: Dedicated to both premium quality and environmental responsibility, we exclusively use 100% USA sustainably harvested aspen excelsior. We prioritize eco-friendly materials without compromising on quality, understanding their crucial role in sustainable agriculture. 

  • U.S.A Grown & Farmer-Owned: We take pride in being farmer-owned and deeply committed to promoting American agriculture. When you choose our products, you're making a conscious choice to support American farmers and their livelihoods.

  • Hand-Packed with Love: Each box of our nesting pads are hand packed with love, ensuring that every pad is of the highest quality and ready for your hens to enjoy.

 

 

For anyone keeping chickens, having the right nesting materials makes all the difference between a stressed henhouse and a happy one. Our nesting pads come in a generous pad size, cut to fit neatly as liners inside any chicken nesting box or laying boxes, giving your backyard chickens a soft, cushioned spot that helps reduce broken eggs from rough landings or careless kicking. Unlike loose straw, these pads stay put, so broody hens settle in more easily while laying eggs. The natural aspen fibers also help reduce mites and other pests, keeping nesting boxes cleaner and healthier for your whole flock.

Enough pads plus spares

The quantity let us refresh all six boxes and keep spares on hand. Every pad arrived dry, full, and evenly backed.

Blake P.
Good fit in standard boxes

Each pad dropped neatly into our 13-inch nesting compartments with no trimming. The edges stay tucked instead of curling upward.

Less mess around the nests

Loose material no longer trails through the coop whenever a hen leaves. Egg collection is cleaner and the surrounding floor needs less sweeping.

G
Grace S.
A faster morning cleanup

Lifting out one soiled pad is easier than scooping every corner of a box. The kraft backing keeps the excelsior together during changes. The improvement lasted.

Dustin S.
Natural material done well

I like that the excelsior is sustainably harvested aspen and made in the USA. It feels springy without being dusty or perfumed. It proved useful.

Hens accepted them immediately

There was no long adjustment period; two hens laid on the new pads the same afternoon. The natural aspen texture seems comfortable underfoot.

Boxes stay more orderly

Our hens used to kick bedding onto the floor within hours.
