Three things I've learned from this thread that will be put in my coop:
Leave a slot (level with the nest box floor,) under the nest box opening so I can just sweep the mess into the coop. Brilliant and easy solution. Easy cleanup is key.
Don't build a 3'x4' coop in the backyard, when the access door is only 30" wide. I'm going to have to build panels and bolt them together outside.
Since my coop is gonna be small (for now, you're all telling me,) I'm going to use shower panels for the inside rather than flake board. Being able to hose down the walls will make for quick clean up. Plus, since the coop is going to be small, it won't add much to the cost. (what budget?)
Okay, so there's about five things I've learned. Actually just make that five thousand things I've learned.
