My husband is building me a larger chicken coop. The coop will be elevate around 3 feet from the ground and will have perches and nesting boxes. He was wondering if it is OK to use chicken wire for the flooring? That way the poop will fall to the ground and it will be easier for me to rake it up. Right now the one I have now has a floor that slides out and I put shavings down, but I find it to be messy and high maintenance. I have to change the shavings every day. Any suggestions welcome!
