Hello,
I'm building a chicken coop for the first time... by myself... I've never built anything more elaborate than a lego house before!
Anyways, I've been doing some reading on what my coop will need and a few places have said that I need to paint the inside of my coop to help prevent mites and other pests. My QUESTION is this: Should I paint the floor too? I ask because I'm concerned about the chickens scratching it up and eating it! It's a plain wood floor as is.
