Throw several more bags of chips in there! The chickens will turn it into compost in a year or so. No smell! I put deep litter in my chicken house November of 2022 and have not had to clean it out yet. It's about 12 inches deep. It composts, the chicks are always stirring it up and pecking through it---prevents boredom. I also add bags of shredded paper from ads and straw and hay. Best way to do chickens! Thanks for the great videos.
Thanks Sheila! We are trying the deep litter method now, it does keep them busy on the rainy days when they want to stay inside! Thank you for the support!
Love that you re-use the barn boards!
