precision poop picking

[rick]

No matter how hard I've tried to keep the coop open and easy to get to every part of the floor for poo picking I've ended up with shelves and stuff and its got to be difficult to get all round it with a glove. I made this pair of poop tweezers last night from bamboo and those plastic cups that you get for screwing down corrugated perspex sheet. A bit fiddly and I've ordered a litter picker but the cups work really well.and minimise the amount of bedding picked up with said offending article. Sorry about the evidence of use seen in the second photo!

That's neat Rick - with the added advantage that continued use will vastly improve your ability to eat in a Chinese Restaurant

Are you now working on a radio control version? My husband has some tiny drones he flies in the living room. Drives the dog mad but could do the job.

The French answer for dog poo which could, possibly, be miniaturised using a battery-operated car vacuum.

Stop and desist Rick!, suction cups mounted on an arm!, next you will have a contraption featuring a whisk and you will be half way down the road to building a Dalek.

Oh dear, I've just gone off foo yung for some reason.
I think it was Valerie that suggested the Fox blasting robot - Very clean and chicken friendly on the Dalek homeworld!
