Love your coop and the story that goes with it!!!

Love all these posts. I've got the outside of my coop done. It just needs a roof, doors, and roosts. Then I'll post it. I agree - so many pretty photos of the outsides but it's the guts that matter.
Zonoma - I laughed out loud. Thank you.

How do you keep the sand clean?

That's an easy one to answer. Clean it every morning with the kitty litter pooper scooper. For me about 5 minutes.

Would shavings over Winter and sand through the Summer be a good idea?

I'm in the same case: looking for internal ideas. I bought the biggest, cheapest imported coop I could find, so that I would be able to throw more cash at getting the inside done right first time. I'm getting lots of ideas. I was going to insulate then ply the inside. Someone here has got plastic cladding-type stuff, which seems to make sense as it would save buying paint!

I have a child's leaf rake and a child's snow shovel- perfect for 'sweeping' out the poop into the 'dust pan' and then into the compost it goes. I *usually* do this every other day but it's gone as long as ten days (vacation) without getting awful.
