I used to get sack loads of it, we used it for the ponies and the chucks - half and half with shavings for the ponies just to try and eek them out a bit. It was good enough for the chucks as we didn't use a lot of it. We found because of our soil type it was fine in the compost and then mixed in with the soil just to add a bit of air gap in the soil - if that mnakes sense?
