Straw, shavings or h**p: is there a “best” bedding?
There isn't one bedding material that works perfectly for every horse, stable or yard.
Straw can be economical and provides plenty of volume, while wood shavings are familiar to many horse owners and widely available.
Aubiose bedding offers a different approach. The small, ultra-absorbent h**p shives create a supportive, easy-to-maintain bed while producing less waste.
The best choice also depends on your horse, stable design, storage space, muck heap arrangements and local availability.
So rather than asking “which bedding is best?”, perhaps the better question is:
Which bedding works best for you and your horse?
