Bulk Aspen Excelsior – Soft, Clean, and Ready for Your Coop

If you want natural, easy-to-use bedding that keeps your nest boxes clean and your hens comfortable, Bulk Aspen Excelsior is a simple, dependable choice. Made from 100% pre-pulled, cleaned aspen fibers, it goes straight from the box to the nest—no heavy prep required.

A Note on Compression: What Makes Our Excelsior Different

Our excelsior is not machine-compressed into a hard block.

We lightly compress it into the box for efficient shipping, but the fibers remain soft, loose, and easy to work with. Users may give it a quick fluff as they place it, but no breaking apart, tugging, or major effort is required.

Because we pre-pull and clean the material before packaging:

• It stays naturally springy
• It quickly regains loft when opened
• It contains far less dust than traditional hard-compressed excelsior

In short: Compressed for shipping—not machine-compressed for manufacturing. Soft, clean, and ready to use.

Why Choose Excelsior Bedding?

• Ready to Use: Pre-pulled, cleaned, and only lightly compressed for boxing—never brick-hard.
• Efficient Coverage: One pound fills up to 3 chicken nesting boxes.
• Easy Clean-Up: Interlocking fibers form a cohesive nest that’s faster to clean out than pine shavings or straw.
• Natural Material: Made from sustainably sourced Great Lakes Aspen.
• Eco-Friendly: 100% biodegradable and compostable—good for your coop and the planet.
• Responsibly Made in the USA

Our aspen excelsior is manufactured in the USA using wood from forest product companies that participate in certified Sustainable Forestry programs. Aspen naturally regrows from its root system, making it an environmentally responsible and renewable choice.
