New question! I've been reading and reading, both here on just googling. Decided it might be best to just tailor the question to my situation.
The coop, which will be a walk-in, 5x6 or so (maybe bigger), has a very rough, uneven, concrete floor. Specifically, it appears people just mixed it up, dumped it in, and raked it out. It cannot be changed. I don't want to spend hours on end cleaning, so it seems the two best choices are sand or deep bedding.
The run will be dirt/grass/weeds until the girls make it just dirt, then probably wood chips since we have a free source from a tree-trimming company.
Can you give me your opinions? Pros and cons? I think I've figured out how both work, but I'm a total novice here so all the help I can get is welcome.
