I'm new to chickens this year. I have my 25 13 week old chickens outside with a coop and a 16 x 16' run covered with poultry netting. I'm wondering what everyone does with the chicken poo in the run. I try raking it up, and it just doesn't work well, it's too small to scoop...what do you use? I was thinking maybe straw or hay spread around the run to help catch some of the droppings would make it easier to pick up. I have horses so I have no shortage of chaff hay, but I also don't want to harbor insects.
Thanks for your help.
