Here's my problem. I have a large coup and a large competely encolsed run. However, I use straw for run and coup. Well when it rains the straw gets so muddy and messy it's frankly disgusting.
I have a tarp that covers more than half of the run for protection against sun and rain but it still gets so muddy and messy. Would pine shavings be better or should I just leave nothing in the run area. I don't know how much the shavings cost.......I get the straw for about 5.00 a bail but lately I go through it like crazy, not to mention having to constantly rake up the wet straw.
Any Ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
