My two polish pullets just turned a year old and have been laying at least an egg a day. Unfortunately, they have been laying them in the roost. None have cracked yet, luckily, but they refuse to lay in the nest boxes! They both sit in a nest box during the day, but haven't laid any eggs there. They lay them sometime during the night or early morning while roosting. I have a couple golf balls in each of the 3 nesting boxes, but the one pullet keeps kicking them to the edges of the boxes. They obviously like their nest boxes since they do sit in them during the day... What can I do to help teach them to lay there? Or is it just that they haven't learned to control that yet as they seem to lay while roosting?
