Thank you for the advice! Does it have to be cleaned more often than deep litter? I liked the deep litter partially for the convenienceThat’s helpful and will make a cool setup for your new chicks. Deep litter works best with a dirt floor mostly due to the moisture needed to work properly. You might want to search the forums for info on deep bedding instead which is similar. It doesn’t really compost without moisture and dirt, so you just periodically throw some fresh shavings in to keep things dry and fresh and clean it out when needed.
