Hi everyone. For those of you who use straw in your coup, I was wondering how often you change yours. I'm new to chickens this past summer. Built a coup 8' x 8'. In the winter here in PA, I put down two bails of straw on the floor. It seems to last about 3 weeks to 1 month. After that it's on the damp side. I push out the damp straw and put in two fresh bails, including in the nesting boxes. I have 14 chickens.
BTW, I shoveled the snow out of their run today. They came out within minutes!! First time they've been out in a couple weeks.
Thanks everyone.
