Poultry Litter

In agriculture, poultry litter or broiler litter is a material used as bedding in poultry operations to render the floor more manageable. Common litter materials are wood shavings, sawdust, peanut hulls, shredded sugar cane, straw, and other dry, absorbent, low-cost organic materials. Sand is also occasionally used as bedding. After use, the litter consists primarily of poultry manure, but also contains the original litter material, feathers, and spilled feed.
