Another one for new chicken keepers in cold weather...
It's great cleaning up chicken poo in freezing weather, as most of It's in the coop- less searching it out on the run floor, & it doesn't smell so bad. But when it's frozen solid to the floor, a dedicated garden trowel is handy for chiselling deposits off the run floor!
I also wear a pair of plasticized warm gloves with a disposable glove over the top of the one that won't be holding the trowel handle...
