I do not understand the other reviews, the nest pads are very tough material. I have taken them out many times sprayed them with the hose, and put them back in without any issues.

After using this product for 2 weeks and after having to cut it down to get it to fit the nesting box it was supposedly designed for, I find that it is developing holes in places that the chickens can not access. I don’t know what to do. This is the only place I can get this item for this nesting box.

Item was too big and needed to be trimmed for length. This is the second time I have ordered this item and both times I have had to trim off as much as 6 inches.

Nesting Pad was supposed to be 47.75" x 19.5".
Length was almost 1" short, and the width was 1/2" short.
Although this may seem minor to some chicken owners, I have a specific purpose for this pad and the shortage will cause problems for me. I've been using this plastic turf-style nesting pad for a few years and the chickens and I both love them.

These are expensive for what they are. And I can no longer get the size that fits my nest box, so I had to get two small ones and make it work, although not very well. I’m disappointed. I will probably try something else next time I need nest pads.
