Looking for a Manure tray for under roost ?

[Joe.G]

Hi, I need the dimesions to be about 71" by 19 " I was thinking about getting boot trays, if I got three of them and trimmed one done a few inches it should fit.

Is this a good idea? could I just lay them on the floor under the roost?

Thats a nice idea, Not sure I have the time at the moment to construct it.

I use boot trays in all my coops...easily trimmed w/pair of wire snips (only thing is if you trip you loose the lip to keep material in so I trimmed and then hot glued (from the bottom) the edge back on

Boot trays are GREAT! I use them in my coop....makes it so much easier to clean the poop out....I dump the poop in my "to be" garden spot, then hose the trays off and replace them in the coop. Best idea for poop coop!!!!

Do You have any pic's of how you mounted your boot trays?

We just put brackets to hold it up. You don't want them on the floor, it stays so much cleaner being right under the roost.

Do you put wood shavings or anything on them or do you just leave them as is and hose them off every few days?
