Flooring for my Chicken Coop

[PetesChicks]

I’d go with untreated, especially if you’re going to use Blackjack. It’s great stuff, I have 3 coats on the floor of my coop. Great looking shed for a coop, I see happy chickens in your future!

Glad to know you liked the Blackjack, it always reassuring to hear others have had success with it. Thanks for the info!

Make sure you mix it really really well, or it won't cure properly.
Good tip that I've read, store can upside down for a few days before opening and mixing.

Yes, that's what I would do and did on my 8 x 12 coop floor. I used regular 3/4 inch plywood. Black Jack will seal it good.

I put black jack 57 on floor and about a foot up. It’s only been about a month so not sure of longevity.

Is it easy to shovel? The vinyl I have now is tearing and hard to shovel. I need to replace it with something that I can spray and shovel easily.
