Chicken Coop Chips

Description

Our Chicken Coop Chips are one of our BEST SELLING PRODUCTS at Dandys!

They’re a mixture of chipped hard woods that provide a hardwearing, clean base for your poultry run or coop.  The smell of the chipped wood is great for keeping your coop fresh - chickens love to scratch in it too!  The chips help keep the floor warm and dry during the winter.

We can supply you with 3 sizes of bulk bag (see image):

  • Jumbo Bulk Bag which contains approx 1000ltrs (one cubic metre)
  • Standard Bulk Bag contains about 750ltrs (same as most builders merchants)
  • Midi Bulk Bag contains approx 500ltrs

Small Handy Bags are approximately 50ltrs and the perfect option if you want a small quantity or if you have access issues and will need to carry through your house or over any walls etc.

We use a variety of delivery vehicles and haulage firms to complete our deliveries.

If you live in or near Chester, we'll deliver to you ourselves with a HGV crane, if you live elsewhere in the UK we'll use a pallet network who will use a manually operated pallet truck to move the pallet of bag(s) to the kerbside, onto a level, solid surface such as a tarmac (not gravel or grass sorry).

Bulk Bag and Pallet shipping is free to Cheshire, Flintshire, Wrexham, parts of Manchester, parts of Merseyside and Liverpool - outside of this area prices start at £11.95. Parcels, samples and individual small small bags are shipped with Royal Mail and therefore are not free delivery.

Quantity Calculations

Topsoil and Sand

Length (m) X Width (m) = m2 

m2 X 1.2 X Depth (inches)... then divide your total by 36 = tonnes required

Bark, Mulch and Compost

Length (m) X Width (m) = m2 

m2 x 0.05 = cubic metres per 2 inch/50mm depth

Garden Lawn Turf

Length (m) X Width (m) = amount of rolls needed.  We advise that you order 10% extra so that you have plenty for offcuts.

Natural Stone Paving

Length (m) X Width (m) = m2 you need.  Our packs are 15.25m2.

Gravel and Slate

Length (m) X Width (m) = m2 

m2 x 0.04 = tonnes per 1 inch/25mm depth

Crusherrun

Use the Gravel Calculator then multiply by 1.25 (= tonnes per inch)

Conversion:

1 tonne = 1000kgs / 1 Jumbo Bag

1 cubic metre = 1000ltrs / 1 Jumbo Bag

Product Disclaimer

Weeds

We do not chemically treat our products for weeds. Weeds thrive in warm, wet weather and especially in very fertile soils and composts like our own. Although every care is taken to remove weeds during our screening process we can not guarantee that weed seeds are not present in the soil or compost that you receive. To keep your topsoil organic we suggest pulling up common weeds, when and if they appear, instead of using chemical weed-killers. Or purchase some of our anti-weed prevent membrane and some gravel or mulch, for an easy weed-free garden!

Gravel/Stone Size & Colour

Images are for representation only.  All products that Dandy’s supplies are naturally occurring products and may have slight variations in colour, size and content, individual rocks, stones or cobbles made be broken or misshaped because of this. Sizes of products specified are approximate and can vary.  Naturally occurring products such as slate, natural stone paving or gravel are sourced from quarries and so can often differ in appearance slightly from load to load.

Good item

Good item , as described, decent price.
Only let down by delivery, received notification in the afternoon and 10 minutes later shipment arrived. So much for 30 minute warning. Fortunately I was just returning home as it arrived. Not surprising going by reviews on Trustpilot.
Actual delivery driver was excellent, friendly and helpful

Excellent chicken coop chips

We ordered the chicken coop chips for our run as it was bare earth after the chickens had eaten the grass. It was raining a lot so had turned into mud meaning it was really slippy and smelt really bad. We laid the chicken coop chips down and it is so much better, really clean, no mud or slipping, the smell has completely gone and the chickens love kicking through it. We will be ordering again in a few years once these need topping up!

Good product

The woodchips were perfect for my chickens and the delivery driver went out of his way to deliver them exactly where I needed them. Only slight grouch was the length of time it took to process the order.
