Just wait, they'll dig some holes.
You could help them get started by turning over one shovelful of sod.
I made my mobile coop on the frame of an old boat trailer. I'll probably move the coop and run to greener grass if/when the chickens trample the current run. Since it's in my backyard, I'm not too anxious to dig holes. But I did put a dust bath in the coop and I hope they are using it. At least, 4 weeks on the same patch of grass and no dust baths dug into the grass as of yet.
