I discovered my coop did not drain as expected. Cement pad had settled so the water pooled.
I had to use a shop vac to get the water out.
good luck

I don't know where you live, but around here, the heat would have it dried up pretty quickly.

You can use a broom or something similar to get the bulk of the water routed toward those holes to get it dried out. I wouldn't panic too much.

A day or two in the sun does wonders!​
 
Old towels? Sop up the water and throw 'em in the laundry afterwards. Shop vac would be first choice though.
