    Cleaning cecal poop

    Interesting. Maybe they are doing it in the morning while they are waiting to be uncooped (it's an internal ramp). They don't wait that long! Obviously not good holderon-erers. I'll just have to learn to scrub it then though because I can't let them out any earlier.

    Cleaning cecal poop

    :) thanks for caring! The coop I have is like the ones you can get from pet stores /bunnings, so the whole thing is enclosed and is where they sleep at night. So yep the are locked up! There's a ramp that goes from the wire part to the inside wooden bit but i cover the whole thing in a tarp...

    The ramp goes up into a sheltered section - its just the coop that came with the first two chooks but the new girls sleep on it :/
