Convertible Bottom on my Coup De Ville

[Dr.Doorlock]

If you/ve been to my web site, you have seen my convertible Nest Boxes. My girls are having their first night in their soon to be finished coup.

I got so many different opinions on whether to have a solid bottom or a wire bottom. I decided to have BOTH. This will also be nicer to clean and easily replaceable. Take a look at:

My son just presented me with another idea for a large belt on two rollers under the coup. This way you could hand crank (or motorized;o) the belt across a rubber blade and the poop would fall into a trough. This one may never make it off the drawing board.

Thats really cool, i only see one problem, will the track its on get poop in it that will need cleaned?

Hey, let us see the finished coop when your done!

I left the track very loose and with the bottom out i can hose it clean. I should be finished with the coop next week with my convertible nest boxes in place. If you missed those, click the link below to my web site.

That's a neat idea,I think I'll do something like that on our next tractor coop.
