I don't care for the deep litter system either. It may work but I like a clean loft. I always tell people to try different things and use whatever works for them.

I do not use the deep litter because I'd end up with a thick layer of poopy bedding. Even though new bedding is added, the chickens mix it up. Much prefer to clean it out as it gets dirty. My bedding does not end up piled in the corners, there is 6-7 inches down in each pen, in each barn.It's time to clean again, get the old stuff out, on the gardens and in the compost pit. Can't plant for a month, with all of the spring rain, that is long enough for the bedding to not be too hot.Cathryn rainbowsilkiesTM in Michigan
