Please check out my construction threads (see my siggy) for details if you are interested, but the slanted poop board and door that opens for cleaningt was the best idea I took from this plan, modified, and built into my coop. The chooks hit it about half of the time, but only 2 are roosting now and it's early. It is a tremendous help in cleaning, and it takes me about 10 minutes a day to clean it out. I add a few handfuls of fresh pine shavings about once a week, and some straw in the nest boxes as needed. It doesn't stink and it stays nice and dry.
