Honestly not long at all, maybe a week or two, a month at most for cardboard. The chickens tear the paper apart when they scratch, then the microbiology in the coop floor and soil break it down the rest of the way. Small bits of paper and cardboard are great additions to chicken coop bedding since they are high in carbon. Good question!
