You use this in your hen house and run, but not in your nesting boxes correct? Straw for the nesting boxes?

I think I would like to try the sand but have a couple questions.
1.) what flooring do you put the sand on? Plywood/linoleum?
2.) my chickens can't free range due to the hawks at our stock tank so I was going to leave the run as grass so they can still get the feel of "free range". Is there a reason I should use sand instead?
Thank you.

Great! Thank you. We already bought the linoleum for the floor and are putting in a chute for easy removal of floor bedding so it is great to know that sand will still work with my design. I don't think the run will be too muddy but we just moved in to this house in July so I am not to sure. The spot we picked is on a little bit of a rise so the rain should drain downward and not be too muddy....I hope.
