Chickens are notoriously messy, so achieving a cleaner chicken coop may seem impossible without investing lots of time. In this method, you allow the droppings and bedding material to accumulate and decompose inside the coop instead of regularly scooping out and replacing the soiled chicken litter. Basically, the idea is that you start with a 6-inch layer of pine shavings - or other highly absorbent bedding material - throw in chicken scratch so your chickens aerate the shavings, and let nature compost the litter and chicken droppings in the coop.
