poop

[Jim Edwards]

where in the coop do your chickens poop the most? I suspect it would be under where they roost at night, but I have no chickens and want to know if a change in design of the coop would be helpful

Beneath the roosts is a primary 'poop' place. Poop boards beneath the roosts aid in cleanup.

I agree with Sourland. Having been a former teacher, I just put a giant white board under the roosting bars, sprinkle with a little PDZ and clean up is MUCH easier each morning.

99% of the poop will be under the roosts. I get maybe 1 poop a day in the coop that's not under the roost area.

Wow you are old. I am 8 years away before I get there. I hope this quarter is healthy for you.

Thanks, I found a design that should work. Glad I found it before I started to build it/

I'll be even older after tomorrow. So far this, the final quarter, has been fun.
