pooper-scoopers

Glad to hear it's not just my dogs that are scoffing the chicken poop!!!!!!  Also just trodden one into my car 

Rubber gloves and a bit of hemcore for the runny ones!

I used a small metal dustpan initially, but now just chuck a bit of sawdust on it to soak up the wet ones! and then pick it up by hand and chuck it in the ashbin before taking it to the compost bin.  Wash hands well of course before I cooke the bacon and eggs 

Did someone mention dogs eating it, I thought I was going nuts when I saw my dog do that, but she rushes into the pen and starts snooping around for any chicken poop she can eat before I can stop her now, makes me feel really sick, what is it about chicken poop that they like?

thank you all. having really bad evening, read this and am smiling. my dog just loves my hen poo! yuk. dirty beast.  i love this frosty weather as all the animal poo just freezes and it is real easy to scoop up.

wicked idea jules dont mind if i use it to do ya  the trowel is good but it can full of it sometimes and u can spend a few mins trying to re pick it up as i done loads this afternoon 

I cut the bottom off a plastic milk carton and with the handle being the other end it makes a real good scoop, and when it tooo pooey i put it in the bin and make another.

Excellent idea, will be doing that from now on.  At the moment it isn't too much of a problem as I have the chickens in the garden and the dog disposes of most of it like others have said, but they are moving to the plot once their new home is ready and, unless I take the dog down there to eat it, I will have to clean it up!

My daughters seaside spade  does the trick perfectly,  however the milk carton is ingenious !
