I just have the tarp in part of the coop . Where they roost . they leave in the morning go out to free range . I then pick up the tarp . The chickens do not scratch at it at all.

JackE... supposing you did the BlackJack on a sunny spring day - how long do you suppose it would take for it to dry and cure so that we could put our chicks in their new home? It was in the 80's last week, but its in the 50/60's here now. So I'm thinking it would probably be in the 60's when we do it.
I guess my main concern is damage done to the floor by urine/wet feces. Since I'm going to use the deep litter method... hoping to only do a deep cleaning 2x a year which will include disinfecting with vinegar.... am I overthinking this or OCDing something that doesn't need to be OCD'd over? My concern with the BlackJack is.... since this is an actual new shed that we are outfitting for the chicks... what if I am no longer able to have chickens - the Blackjack is permenant - is this the type of flooring I want on say a work shop? Can I get away with just painting with porch paint, covering with deep litter, and cleaning and disinfecting as needed????? I hope I'm not giving you all a headache like I'm giving myself AND my DH.
