How often should I clean my coop and run?

[rosemarythyme]

General assessment of the thread is that you really don't have to clean too often, especially in the run? Just add layers of dirt/sand/shavings/leaves/mulch?

Well... only issue is I remember you're going to have a smaller set up. The more space you have, the more you can stretch out time between cleaning (especially coop) as you have more air space and more room in general to let stuff build up.

In a smaller coop you'll likely need to clean out more often. Spot cleaning daily will help, otherwise you may need to do full cleanouts every month? Every 6 weeks? (Hard to give an exact number as every set up is different.)

With well established deep litter with good drainage, that's almost maintenance free.
