Hi,
I will sometimes add extra chips. Eventually, the chips will start to pack down and be hard to stir with my hand. ( no, I don't stir them with my hand, It just "looks" that way). Stirring with a stick works. You can sprinkle some Sweet PDZ over the top of the chips to cut any ammonia...
I agree with trailrider.
I get the coop clean and swept. Then I dust the floor with a thin film of food grade diotamatious earth (DE).
Just thick enough so I can't see the floor. Then I scatter a thin film of Sweet PDZ over the DE. Same thickness as the DE. Then I carefully scatter a 4 inch...
