I have a coop with an attached pen that has a roof on it...I am new at this and got flock last April...I imagine the dirt ground will get saturated and smelly whe the weather warms..I am in upstate NY When the groung wasn't frozen I did shovel it often flipping over dirt....that's all I have in there is dirt..it stays dry with roof but after awhile I am sure it will be smelly and not sure too healthy for them to be in...someone suggested adding peatmoss and hydrated lime this spring and tilling in...any other suggestions?? this was actually build on top of a huge raised vegetable bed so drainage is good.
