I was going to clean out the coop before Winterpocolypse, but then saw the forecast and decided not to because the decaying matter produces some extra heat. I even had the new bales of pine flakes on the back porch! So when it warmed up, my eldest and I locked the chickens in the run so they didn’t freak out, then cleaned out the old shavings, put down some diatomaceous earth, and spread 5 bags of clean pine. We emptied the old straw from the nests and replaced it with new straw sprinkled with some dried lavender. In the process, I also cut out one roost bar, shortening the roost by about 16”. The chickens never used the whole roost, in fact, they only use half of the new area, but by making it a bit smaller it makes it easier for the humans to move around! In whole it took the two of us two hours to clean. Not too bad.
