Help Starting Deep Litter in my coop

[rosemarythyme]

Yeah not sure how drainage would work with pavers... I'd hate to say it'd be an interesting experiment, but in a way that's what it is. Since it's roofed I agree with NatJ that any water you get in there is mostly going to be from rainfall drainage from higher up seeping/washing in, so drains to divert water from doing so might become necessary, but impossible to tell at this point if that'll be the case.

Best case scenario it drains fine between the pavers and the litter materials, and any slope above doesn't feed in too much water (or the drainage compensates for it).

the team building it says it will drain through spaces between pavers and blocks

He may be correct, depending on how the soil is.

Did you just add those pics in the first post?
Didn't see them before
Looks like the foundation is deep but the dirt will remain inside the foundation?
That should be fine.....I thought you were digging the whole area out that deep.
