Our land is all sand... dig in it and its like dry beach sand... if i build a coop and do a deep littler floor will this work really well or hurt my deep litter making?


Better off to do deep little on concrete slab floors??
 
Why not just use what you have, sand works really good in a warmer climate like yours, I use it in my turkeys shed, scoop the poop out as necessary.
 
Won't hurt it, but you may need to bring in some 'active' soil if you want a composting type of deep litter to get things started.
