Ok, I took a vacation day yesterday to give my coop a good cleaning before winter sets in.
Itstarted raining about 7 a.m. I waiting until about 9 and it was still raining (per weather forecast wasn't even suppose to rain until late afternoon)
So I decided I was going to start any way.
So booted the chickens out, removed the nest and roosts and started shoveling out the old bedding.
I always then spray the entire coop with a bleach solution, scrub the dirty spots on the walls and floor, spray/rinse down with the hose, let dry, replace bedding and put the nest and roost back.
So I completed as usual, well with the rain and obviously high humidity the coop would not dry.
SOOOO, I proceeded in the house and got the bath towels and started drying everything. I then had to wash and dry over 20 bath towels.
If my SO ever found out what I did with the bath towels she would make me sleep in the coop.
I feel better now that I confessed.
