I have 24 chickens. Due to a few hens laying eggs on the coop floor, I split the coop in half with 2x6 boards just high enough to keep deep bedding only under the roosts and have no bedding on the other half where I keep the water, feed, oyster shells and roll out nesting boxes. On the side with no bedding, they still poop but it dries fast and it’s easy to just sweep out periodically. I live in the Willamette Valley in Oregon. We have pretty mild winters. We’ll get snow occasionally and the temperatures don’t often go much below freezing.
My question is...do I even need bedding at all? I don’t need the compost.
