I see reference to bedding, not quite clear what or where that would be. The hens sleep on the roost, right? Do people also add some sort of shelf or floor space with hay, etc? I would imagine this could really help increase my floorspace for those cold spells where they're "cooped up" as it were. Is this just going to make another messy area to keep clean, or is it a good idea? I'm thinking a shelf above the nesting boxes, with a 2" lip or so, full of hay. Pain in the butt to clean regularly, but if they're going to snuggle into some hay I don't see an easy way around just changing it out every couple of days.
