I have been doing alot of thinking, and decided that I do want a poop board. Plus 2 of my "chicken" chickens, need a softer landing as they jump down to the board that leads to the ladder, to which they refuse to use.
Anyways, I thought I had a great idea, but after thinking about it, think I just made a big mistake. I know that the legs of chickens can get injured fairly easy, and since mine have a bit of a jump off the roosts, I thought by adding a piece of cardboard, it would soften the jump down, and act as a tmeporay poop board, as I have unlimited access to cardboard boxes. Could easily change them out, as they got too soiled.
Will slipping be an issue, like i have heard of newspaper is? Need to figure this out before tonight as the go to roost for the evening? Any other ideas on a poop board? I am at a loss of how to make this happen? Any ideas on a tight budget?
Thanks in advance
