Is there some reason they might be spooked about going in the coop?
Any changes made just before this behavior started?
Any pests like mites maybe present?
Did they maybe get nipped by the autodoor and now they are afraid of it...or are they settling onto the run roost way before door closes?
Is the autodoor operate by light sensor or timer? Daylight savings time change maybe screw it up?
Definitely remove roost in run and see what happens.
The only thing new that I have done is changed the bedding. I had pdz on a tray under the roost, and changed it to pdz and wood chips. I see no mites on their feet, but I'm new to this, and not sure where to look and what to look for. I'll have to research this I guess.
Thanks for the questions. I'm thinking...
