I always have used san in my run areas. As someone else posted use plenty and 6 inches should work
out fine. I put a drain in my big run so that I could wash it out. The way I have it done, I can spray
out all of the chicken poop and not lose any sand.
Also with plenty of sand in the runs to keep the mud away you will have less of a problem with your
chickens getting worms. I am about to order a load of sand in the next few days myself to add to the
runs and for the new pens we are fixing to build. My brother works for a gravel company and I can get
a load of sand for a very good price.
Went red fishing last weekend and something about the boat ride kinda straightened out my back. My
back has been giving me fits for the last 5 years to the point that I have only been able to sleep 2-3 hours
a night. Since the fishing trip I have been going to bed about 9:30-10:00 at night and my wife has
been having to wake me up around 8 am. Then about noon today I got out of the truck and took a wrong
step and I have a catch so bad in back that I can't even walk again. May need to line up another fishing trip
this weekend.
Hope everyone has a great week.
