Here's a picture of the ideas I had. I gotta figure out if I want 1 or 2 nest boxes though.. I am thinking with a trio of Silkies I will probably need two!
So have to revise it some.
That dark line through the middle is supposed to be a roost bar on the inside, lol. and I was thinking of putting drop windows on the sides for ventelation.
Looks great! But I agree with PP-- you only need ONE nest box. Just make that box roomy for them, and it'll be fine. Hens don't all lay at the same time and they like to lay where others are laying. So if there's an egg in there, they will want to lay there. Mine all like to lay in the same box. I have 5 boxes, 12 hens and only ONE box is really used. Sometimes two.. I like the drawing you've come up with.
