Indoor keeping

[giwa]

Since he sleeps inside, you might consider that he doesn't actually need a coop, something like a dog exercise pen may work better for you. You can lay down a piece of linoleum to protect your floor and put down pine shavings to help absorb the poo. Poops can be scooped out with a cat litter scoop to keep the pen clean. An ex-pen would give him more room to avoid stepping in his poop.

Thanks! I will take this into consideration.
Cute dog, btw!

If he lets you pick him up, the washcloth should work. You wouldn't need to flip him over, just tuck him under your arm and then use the wet washcloth to give his feet a good cleaning.

Good point. I think he would tolerate this.

I believe it’s called a snap lock plastic coop or something of that nature? It’s pretty good for keeping a bird or two. The only downside is that it only has one window which you might like but i’m a fan of my girls having lots of em! Also i’m pretty sure there was a thread on here about it somewhere. http://snaplockchickencoops.com/

These are awesome. I am going to keep this in mind for sure. I will have to save some to get one but seems it will be worth it! Thanks for sharing.

How about getting some free and clear baby wipes for his feet? Keep them next to his coop and give his feet a quick wipe as you take him out.

There is this plastic coop option too. Though it looks to need a window or ventilation if you were to close him in. Maybe this with the optional run? https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B008...icken+coop&dpPl=1&dpID=31j5xpCdDUL&ref=plSrch
