Instead of a "board" in my tractor I am using a metal oil drip pan...its about 24" x 45". it sits on the coop floor under one of the roosts. But all the pictures I see ,the board is just under the roost. guess i could suspend it with chain under the roost. ----oh yea, chicks are too small for the tractor yet so I have time to refine it.
Also what is a good width for the poop board, my "pan" will need to be cut down ( it will be easy to clean,hose right off). Would 6" on either side of the roost be enough ? then will I need a pre roost to they can make the hop up and over the board to the roost?
,, I hope this makes sense.
Thanks
