ZEOLITE
One Mineral, Endless Uses
Zeolite is a natural volcanic mineral with a microscopic honeycomb structure that traps moisture, odor, and toxins. We finely mill and pack it for the two jobs it does best — keeping backyard flocks clean and dry, and giving garden soil better drainage, aeration, and nutrient retention.

How It Works
Formed from volcanic ash and water over thousands of years, zeolite is riddled with microscopic pores that trap ammonia, moisture, and odor like a magnet. That same honeycomb structure slowly releases water and nutrients back into soil — so one simple mineral can freshen a coop and feed a garden.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a zeolite dust bath?
It is a natural mineral dust that chickens roll and fluff through their feathers to absorb excess oil, remove dirt, and help control mites and lice — the way chickens naturally keep themselves clean.
How do chickens use it?
Pour it into a shallow tub or a dry corner of the run. Birds instinctively dust bathe in it, usually within a day.
Is it safe for chicks?
Yes, once chicks have developed their feathers. It is a single natural mineral with no additives.
Can other pets use it?
Yes. It also works well for chinchillas, reptiles, and other small animals.
How is it better than pumice or diatomaceous earth?
Zeolite is highly absorbent and gentle, controlling moisture and odor without the fine respirable dust concerns associated with diatomaceous earth.
How often should I refresh it?
Top up or replace the dust when it becomes damp or soiled to keep it dry and effective.
