1st, how large is your coop? If about a 20 x 20, you should not have to clean very often with only 3 chickens, maybe once a month if you get no rain. put shavings and hay in the shelter.
I have over 200 hens and roosters on 3 acres and a large hen house that I clean out every weekend. I pitchfork the shavings and hey and add clean. I also clean my laying boxes out almost every day to keep the eggs clean. The grass is all brown now as you can see in the picture. you will also see the veggies all over the ground. The health food store I sell eggs to always gives me their produce that is past sale date. The chickies love it.
