I honestly feel like I should be a pro about everything chicken by now.
I love a clean chicken coop with dry as possible bedding.
The floor of my chicken house was once wood. It got change to concrete and I thought it would be much better. I was wrong to some degree.
I am cleaning every day still. I usually buy the large pine shavings which just clumps together and stick to the floor when they poop.
I am changing to small wood shavings on Tuesday to see if it will make a difference.
I am now keeping broilers and they poop more.
I put down a light layer of large pine shavings in the morning, then clean again in the evenings putting down a fresh light layer of shaving again.
I tried putting a deeper layer at some point and I still ended up cleaning the next day. The shaving stick in clumps and dont seem to soaking in anything. I have very good ventilation.
I am tired as heck.
Does anyone have any ideas about this shavings thing on concrete floor???
