It's what we use. Keep the cooler and pens picked up. Fibers will last as long as you refresh. Watch your light colored or white cattle it will stain hind quarter if you don't rinse daily

What are the benefits of ceder fiber over mulch? I am from the same area and have been told to contact Matt Mcguire at Blanchard Valley Lawn and Pet in Findlay. Never checked to see if he sells it though.

We use the cheapo bagged mulch from menards. Its called eco-mulch or something along those lines. It is fairly dry compared to other mulches. If you just have a few to bed its about the easiest we have found. Amish saw mills are good places to get stuff from too. In our area they darn near give truckloads away but then you have to have storage for it. Just a couple of options.

All cedar fiber questions should be directed to Freddy.  I believe he sales it and most likely uses it.

If your running a cooler cedar fiber is the only way  to go. Most umbarger dealers can order it for you.

Gries Seed and Feed in Fremont, OH usually keeps it in stock and can definitely order if not.
