In the Brooder
I have a small chicken coop and run. We put pine shaving in the coop and sand in the run. This has been working well but here is my problem ...
Last night we got a horrible rain and the run flooded. There was about two to three inches of water in.
Now the run is all mud! The chickens keep sinking in it and it smells horrible! I went out once or twice a week and scooped out all the poop but it smells horrible now!
Tomorrow I am taking the coop off and getting rid of all the sand. What should I do after?
I'm going to raise the coop off the ground. And put a large price of plywood under neath. Should I put sand again or just go with pine shavings?
