super new here and have a bunch of questions

Date sort Score sort
I was going to suggest something like that, but I took another look at the pictures, and noticed this:
LL
the nesting boxes are 2/3's as tall as the door, so if we had the roost as high as the top of the door,

LL
the ventilation would be blowing directly on the hens. :( It was a nice idea.

Great! Did they(she) lay it in a nest?

yes! Just one egg, but nestled in the soft bedding of the larger pink plastic container! I checked in the morning before I went to work.... no egg! But in the evening it was there! So I'm thinking she laid it later in the morning once the sub was fully up. I checked this morning also and no eggs today so I'll have my kids check when they get home from school in the afternoon (rather than wait til evening when I get home from work). This all makes me think supplemental lighting will be more important for our girls even though others here have said they don't use it
