What should I use on the floor of my chicken coop?
Use clean, dry, absorbent bedding suitable for poultry and replace wet or heavily soiled material promptly. Avoid mould, strong fumes and hazardous fragments. Bedding depth and management depend on the house and climate. Keep ventilation working and investigate water leaks or persistent damp rather than covering old problems with fresh material.
Manage bedding as well as choosing it
Remove wet or soiled material and investigate leaks or condensation. Keep food and water from fouling the floor. Avoid mould, dust and material of uncertain chemical treatment.
