Chirping
Situation:
We converted an unused shed into a coop and put the run around 2 sides of it. 8'x32' has a roof over it, and 8'x16' is uncovered. There's a bit of large gravel around the shed and grass (for now) over the rest and we have clay soil. I love being with the chicks (ten-12 week old freeloaders), and scooping poop doesn't bother me.
Questions:
Should I put sand under the covered area and organic material in the uncovered area with a divider to separate them?
Should I wait until the grass is gone to put the sand/chips down?
I really appreciate your advice, I want to keep my chicks happy and healthy
