Hi Silkielova,

I clean out my sheds every month, Falk the straw, sweep the little bits, then hoseout, then disenfect purches and nesting boxes.

The girls love it when the new straw come in

Cheers sharon

I thought that was Ella's job.

I'm sure yours would be more fun anyway. I could stand upright in those instead of bending over and stuff.

I don't clean my pens as often as I should as I just run out of time all the time. I think I need time management. :(
