Here is a stupid question...
My three chooks are in a partially covered run that is about 10 x 5 (estimate). They have a short roost and a little doghouse that they sleep in in cold weather and lay eggs in.
How do I clean their run? It seems like an odd question, but the run is dirt, and I am not sure how to get the poop up. I am not going out there with a kitty litter scoop!!
It just poured here last night, so it is a non-issue for the uncovered part of the run, which is mostly where they poo (and in the doghouse, but that's easy enough).
I do not let them free range outside of the pen b/c we have two hawk families (probably five hawks, total, including babies) who would love to eat the girls.
