Upgrade

The chickens needed a little upgrade to the floor of Red Door Coop.  Literally, the floor needed to go up!  Over the past three years, the gravel had become packed down and scooped out in our daily cleanings.  Papa and Mama Hen kicked out the girls yesterday and let them play in the chicken yard and pen.  While the chickens played we opened 20 bags of gravel and spread them in the coop.  We also cleaned out under the roost and nesting boxes and replaced all the pine shavings with a sprinkling of one of our new favorite chicken products, Nesting Box Blend herbs for chickens.
The chickens didn't seem too impressed with anything except the new dirt in the chicken bath.
