Coconut husk, as in it's a big dry chunk of dirt that you get wet and it expands? Could be you're using too much water when you make the stuff, that's extremely easy to do. Try switching to paper towels (I know, not very pretty) to see what your humidity would be without any sort of special bedding. Could be where you are, the ambient humidity is at 50 or 60, which is ideal. If that turns out to be the case, then you probably want to go with a bedding that won't be as moist from the get-go, like aspen, or just stick with paper towels.

Good luck!
