Hi,
I got some excellent advice to put sand at the bottom of my chicken coop, it has helped to reduce the smell and made it easy to pick up chicken poo. What I didn't tell u was I lived in UK, where it rains. It has been raining heavily for the past week, and I clean the coop once a week, because of the rain the poo has softened again and dissolved more in the sand because of the heavy rain.
Q1.What do people in this forum do to clean coop with wet sand covered in dissolved poo? I know most of you are based in US. Is there and great tip?
Q2. I give my chickens layers mash, on the bag it says to give them 110 grams per day, because I have 2 chickens I give them 220 grams a day, is his enough? They seem to munch a lot, I also supplement there food with kitchen left overs and dandelion leaves. I'm i giving enough or not enough or just about right amount food?
Thanks
