I don't know about other animals but I do know that for horses, kiln dried shavings are not good. They cause  a moisture imbalance because they are ao dry and when the horses come in out of the wet the moisture   is sucked right out of their feet.

i don't use any bedding. My run in has a dirt floor. 

Any hay that gets dropped and stepped on I scatter around
