What about old fashioned cat litter ???
Whyyyyyy.....I'm going to train them to skip the swingy thing and land only the board....similar to the trick of covering it all like a cat, then moving on to toilet training. Thanks for the help !!Hmm...that's a tough one. I think a swinging board could deter them from perching at all- how would they access the perch above the swinging board?
Most birds naturally want to perch as high as possible so if there is a perch above that poop board they will get up on it.
Another benefit I find is them walking on the poop board itself to get to the roost- they tend to kick out a little PDZ and freshen up my shavings on the floor in the process.
Good luck designing your first coop- YOU WILL DO GREAT!
