Chickens love a good dust bath, but if you want to stop the little darlings from rolling around in your prized vegetable patch it's a good idea to provide them an alternative spot.
Intended as a cat litter tray, this plastic container will make an ideal dust bath for your hens to sit in. Simply fill with a mixture of dry compost and sand and they will be quick to hop in and have a good bathe. Try sprinkling in some Diatomaceous Earth to help rid them of any mites and lice too! Available in pink, purple or blue. Tray measures 38cm x 28cm x 9cm.More than 50 in stock.

I think this size would be suitable for small bantam types, but for my bigger chickens not so suitable. Maybe suitable for those that have never had the privilage of the great outdoors but when they have had access to making their own dust baths will turn their noses up. A better idea is an old sink. Also yes, it creates alot of mess.
This is big enough for a good chicken role around and does not tip up if chooks stand on the edge. Though they can kick the earth out as the edges are quite low it is lovely to have this new addition if you care about the colour scheme of your chickeny things (goes with pink eglu, pink grub and glug, pink gloves and pink pinny)
Our chickens have completely ignored this when set up as a dust bath, preferring to dig down to bare earth and make their own. When I placed it in the run, it just ended up full of wood chips. It has now been abandoned completely but could be useful in future as a cat litter tray.
