How do you manage only having litter sectioned to one space, since the chickens poop absolutely everywhere?Nests can be floor level, that's not an issue at all.
As far as the litter falling in/out of places, my simple solution is a piece of wood held by bricks across wherever you're trying to contain the litter (I use 1x6s, you may need to use a 1x4, depending on how much it constricts the openings).

Also to be realistic, you will not be doing any form of deep litter in there. it's a moist composting system that favors being in direct contact with soil. Deep bedding would be the better option.
And what is the difference between deep litter and deep bedding?
