Aspen Nesting Liners 12 Pack - Clean, Cushioned Coop Bedding

Our review of the Aspen Nesting Liners 12 Pack finds this product best for backyard flock owners who want a cleaner, gentler nesting surface without loose shavings. These 13 in x 13 in kraft-backed pads create a healthy nest environment by using 100% USA grown aspen and trapping droppings beneath the paper backing. The bottom line: if you want less nest mess, cushioned eggs and liners that resist scratching better than loose straw or shavings, these liners deliver consistent, practical benefits for daily coop maintenance.

Key Features

• 100% USA grown aspen: Uses aspen wood shavings that are less likely to cause respiratory or skin irritation compared with pine or cedar, promoting a healthier nest environment.
• 13 in x 13 in size: Each liner fits standard nesting boxes and provides a consistent, cushioned pad for hens and eggs.
• Kraft paper backing: Keeps shavings intact and lets droppings fall through and stay trapped under the liner, making cleaning quicker and neater.
• Pack of 12: Provides multiple liners to rotate for cleaning and replacement so nests remain fresh over months of use.
• Chicken-friendly cushioning: The loose aspen layer creates a gentle bed that protects eggs from cracking and is comfortable for hens to settle on.

Who It's For

These nesting liners are ideal for small flock keepers, homesteaders, and anyone who wants an easy-to-manage nesting solution that reduces egg mess. They work well in standard nesting boxes and are especially helpful where chickens tend to scratch loose bedding out, because the kraft backing helps the pad retain shape.

Those who need an all-season deep litter solution or want reusable fabric pads may want to look elsewhere, since these are disposable liners intended for periodic replacement rather than permanent bedding.
