Reuse Packing Material as Animal Bedding

Just a quick FYI, you can put packing paper and thin cardboard into a paper shredder to make your own livestock bedding. I’m using a 12 page shredder. Livestock bedding is so expensive that I think this is worth the time. It’s also better than recycling, in my opinion, which requires resources to process.

    A good idea. I used to make papier mâché from old cardboard or news paper for my car and train models.

    Nowadays I use paper mâché to make some terrain-features tiles for my boys’ floor-based game. For smaller things I’ve had to rely on 3D printing, given my tight schedule.

Wyoming Prairie

Welcome to my blog. After moving to Wyoming, it was such an uplifting surprise to discover how much edible forage is here. It actually seems more abundant than all other states I’ve lived in. This blog is where I share foraging finds, homesteading attempts, fun facts, and tips for living in Wyoming.
