Kimberly, To start your chicks I would put rags down or 10 cent dishclothes/towels from garage sales/good will to start their little feet and legs out on. Change it every day. Once they get about 2 weeks you can use the shredded paper without staples or shiny material in it. This is what I do.

I am new at raising chickens and am about to receive my baby chicks next week. I was wondering if I could use shredded paper (from my shredder) to put in the box in which I will keep the chicks for the first few weeks?
Thanks.
