I bought a really old metal 10 hole nesting box & it was pretty filthy. I blew everything off with the air compressor & am throwing away the floors of some of the boxes because they were so matted with old bedding & manure, but am wondering what else I can do to clean it or what the risks are to adding to to my (new & pretty clean) chicken coop. I don't want to spread disease to my healthy chickens, but the metal is probably relatively hard to clean & the wood roosting perch was really soiled so I need to scrape the poop off that & clean that somehow. What are your suggestions?
