My husband constructed a portable coop for our 6 chickens.
We wanted this type of coop/run so that our lawn would not be brought to a total dirt patch. However, with moving the coop every week or so, I am not sure the chickens will have access to a dust bath.
Should we provide them with one? Making a framed surface with sand or soil in it for them to use as a dust bath?
Here are some photos of the coop and run in progress:
Thanks.
