Sand in the coop

[coachwife2004]

What is the best way to clean the sand!! I just put sand in last week and it's not really dirty but there is a bit of poop and I feed alot of fruit and veg so there are old bits of strawberries and stuff like that is it best to rake it or ???? Thanks ahead of time!

I rake it with a small rake I got at Target and kind of sift the sand through it. I know I won't be able to do that forever but so far so good, about 7 weeks.

I have a kitty litter scoop & a beach pail that I use to clean up the sand. It works like a charm!

I attached a large kitty litter scoop to the end of a broomstick to sift out the waste. My kids call it the "Cooper Scooper".
