That’s what I did in my coops as well for winter. Lots and lots of hay!

as many threads as there are seeking help with run and coop drainage in heavy rains, GOOD ON YOU. Pallets aren't perfect, but they are a quick and reasonably durable fix for a host of ills.

You should see these pallets not your average no gaps and made out of oak 2x4s they are almost too heavy to move on one's own also I hope to clad over the top with a sheet of thin plywood and linoleum to aid in cleaning.

Those aren't pallets, those are GOLD.

Tell me about it I guess the story is they where used to ship high-quality fish tanks so they had to be really sturdy

Love heavy duty crates and pallets! My garden shed is made from a shipping crate that housed a machine. I've seen interior paneling made from pallets. Oh, the lowly, humble shipping pallet, thy name is Useful!
