Sorry for the awful picture. I put vinyl netting on the rafters to keep the girls from roosting up there, they were getting poop everywhere. I'm trying to contain the majority of the mess under the roosting bars for cleaning purposes.
How did things go with putting mesh on the rafters? I am...I was looking at ways to discourage my flock from roosting in my rafters (instead of their roosting bar) and pooping ALL of the floor, your pictures came up. Great idea with the mesh fencing on the rafters. Thanks for sharing

This is an example of a hen roost. Here a simple drop cloth is used rather than a removable ‘poop’ board. The dimensions are 18 inches apart and 18 inches high above each rung. This spacing allows for birds on the lower roosts to avoid being pooed on overnight. This one, with no overhang on the ends, also allows for proper angle of each individual roosting bar. 2 screws into each end and voila!

This is my pride and joy! I built this contraption BY MYSELF! Built it outside and my sister helped me get the darn thing into the coop...what a day THAT was! The poop tray is filled with sweet PDZ granular and I can only say if you haven't converted over to this system you're crazy! Best thing I ever did. I just take the kitty litter scooper (up there on the far left) pick up the poops from the previous night...takes all of 3-4 minutes...done! My roost bar is removable using some metal hanger thingies. My BIL sanded and routed the edges so it's real smooth on the girl's feet.
