I am planning to get three chickens (possibly bantams) with a 6x5 run. I was planning to put sand in part of it so that they could take dust baths, and was going to leave the rest as grass/dirt. I am planning to put hardware mesh under the coop to prevent anything tunneling in. Would that hurt the chickens' feet? should I cover the whole floor of the run in something? I am brand new to chickens and am unsure what to do.
