But I may have to! Because their coop is stinky! I clean it daily and it still smells bad. None of my hens are sick they just poop everywhere. Its attracting flies too. My neighbors are going to get mad at me.

Put their water outside the coop. The poop hardly smells at all when it is dry. Are you using bedding material? I also use lime when I have a stinky area. Try some fly traps.
 
No I havent been using bedding but thats a good idea! In fact I think I may already have some in my garage!

What is the limestone and where do I get it?
 
Chicken poo smells ... like ... chicken poo. Some people don't mind it, others really have an issue with it. You might want to consider putting sand in their coop. The poop doesn't sink into it and you can scoop the poop out, which would cut down on the smell. Also, hang vanilla scented car air fresheners. Flies stay away from those.
Good luck -
