Yay for baby chickens! I plan on using the deep litter method in my own coop. It involves a layer of 4-6" deep pine shavings, you rake through them and turn them once or twice a month, adding a bit if needed and clean out a couple times a year. But since you have such a small space in this starter coop, you may try sand. It essentially works similarly to kitty litter. You rake through and scoop the poop every morning, it can be added directly to your compost. Not sure on the depth people use but you might do some research to see if that works for you.
