Metal Cleaning Trays?

[ChickCluck]

Anyone have any experience using trays in a coop? We are currently in the construction stage of our coop, and am wondering if pull-out trays would help cleaning... I have rabbits, and the cage has pullout trays, which are easy to dump and stick back into the cage.

We are planning a 3 x 3 coop for 2 chickens. Bass Equipment has custom made trays, which I was thinking of ordering, but wanted to see if anyone has had any experience with trays.

Thanks so much!

I think it sounds great .. I would probably use one under the roost and if you wanted a large one for the whole coop floor one that size.. If you do the PoopBoard under the nest you could just pull it out daily to clean and then weekly..etc for the big one.. I would alos make sure to create outside access for you to pull them out...

I love pull out trays! I use a plastic boot tray in my coop, and it's great for dumping out the night poo into our composter.

Thanks for your replies. I think I will go ahead and order trays for the coop.
