I have tons of fake eggs in their boxes. I have put the hens in the box showed, them the eggs, let them watch me put their eggs in the box. I have not tried covering their spot they lay on the ground, yet. I was thinking about attaching a milk crate to the front of a laying box and trapping the hens in a box for a day or 2... sounds mean but some chickens live like that. other ideas are to put a bin on the spot they lay and then move it into the box.. i tryed that once and they moved the bin... but maybe i can attach it to the wall right there on the ground...
ps my laying box is sweet! and my old hens used to love it.. the eggs roll out and you can take them from the out side
