The term 'deep litter' is often misunderstood and misapplied.
I've always liked this explanation:

Managing a truly composting deep litter can be tricky, you have to understand what it contains(both materials and the organisms that break it down) and how it works in order to manage it effectively or it can turn into an unhealthy nightmare. It's not just piling up a bunch of stuff and, viola!


Here's a great description of contents and how to manage organic 'bedding' in a run or coop...and there's a great video of what it looks like.

The problem is the link you are pasting, it does not work for anyone using Microsoft Edge or Microsoft Explorer.

You should use these links instead:

• https://www.backyardchickens.com/th...-method-with-this-coop.1075545/#post-16440037
• https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/muddy-run-help-please.1037998/#post-16017992

Any link containing #post_ followed by a number will give an error when using Microsoft browsers.

The links that you have been pasting are from the old forum. Use the new ones going forward and they will work on all browsers.

Thank you. I am using Edge, so that was the problem. The links were very helpful and it cleared up a problem that I was having with my deep bedding.

I will, as stated....
... still weird that they work(for me) but go to the updated URL syntax.
