Checking-In On Peeps - Post Here To Say Hello!

[ronott1]

I'm trying to stay out the heat like my chickens are. Looking forward to cooler weather to do some things outside. My girls chicken coop dropping trays are rusting up and developed holes in them. I need to get some new ones or fine materials to making new ones.

I am very happy that we are moving to the cooler time of the year!

Consider plywood,, and line them with Sweet PDZ, or sand. Have a perimeter edge to keep the granules from spilling. Use a cat litter scoop for the gumdrops.

Gumdrops, is that what we call them? I love that! I clean mine daily and my coop does not smell. I put the "gumdrops" in an empty feed bag and after a few days my DH carries it out and dumps it in a nice bottomless garden container where he layers it with wood chips we got from the electric company. In a year or so we should have a nice batch of compost!
