My coop is 6 x 4 ft. with a 1 x .5 ft. vent 8 inches above the floor and two 1 x .5 ft. vents about two feet above the roost. I'm trying to get the best ventilation possible so that the Deep Litter Method works.
I plan on using pine shavings and I currently have 7 chickens.
I heard that you start out with 3 inches of bedding, turn it a couple times a week, and add an inch of bedding once a month. Is this correct and will it work for me?
