Hi there.. I am new to this but having a good time with our new chickens we hatched 2 months ago... I built a coop (photo below) and have a decent run area that is all concrete right now... I am undecided about what to use for the base for the chickens to scratch/poop etc.... sand has been suggested but I have seen mixed reviews, decomposed granite maybe, dirt with sand/DG on top?
I live in San Diego, CA and there is one place that mixes sand and decomposed granite and calls it a hoof/zoo mix I am leaning towards that....

If anyone has suggestions please let me know what you would do. Thanks in advance!
