    pregnancy and cleaning coop?

    I am pregnant and have had numerous people questioning me on whether or not i should be cleaning my chicken coop? Not so much cause the weight of the shovel but the "feces". Just wondering. My doctor didn't seem that worried about it but curious as to what everyone thinks.
