These I have been a kind of lazy due to my busy schedules lately. A lot of things I have to take care of. My poultry farm is one of the things I have to fix on daily basis and it's a must due to the nature of the broiler Chickens way of life. They are set of birds that do not like staying in dirty or messed up environment. This is why always pack their pen almost 4 to 5days. Anytime I do this, it's always tiring with the fact that I do this alone by packing the messed up litter materials and replacing it with the new litter materials (sawdust).


After a lot complains in one of my last updates, @felixxx advised me to use the method of spreading the new litter materials on the messed up ones. That it will even serve as advantage such that, the messed up litter materials can even produce maggot which the broiler Chickens can feed on and it will serve as nutrients for them. I didn't really heed to the advice then but now I think it's the right time for me do that and see how it goes.

It was not a stressful thing to do, all what I needed to do is drag the sack filled with the new litter materials (sawdust) into the pen and spread it all over the surface of the messed up ones and this made it look as if it is new. So the plan is at the end of this batch I will pack it once and for all.

'deep littering'.

Just pile more on top.

However, I think it's more for layers than for broilers.
Also, I think it's more of a cold climate thing.

I guess so but I also visited a poultry farm where deep littering is used for broiler. I think they are aged enough for such pattern. They are 7weeks today.

Thanks for your upvote and warm comments.🤜🤛🏿
