Well its quite simple, I use the Pine shavings from Tractor Supply for the deep method, in my 4'x8' coop. I have a 8'x8' enclosed run, that's dirt, which has an opening to a 12'x25' open run, and its all dirt. No need to deep liter or use pine shavings for your run, but what I do is throw some Coastal hay into my enclosed run, especially after a hard rain, which usually hits us, in the Texas Hill country, before it hits yall. It just allows them to have some place that's not real muddy to walk or sit in.
