How do i keep this from happening? My nesting boxes are 7 across with another 7 on top of those. They never use the bottom ones and the top are always dirty with poop. My coop is 3 foot off the ground and is 3 foot front to back, 8 foot wide and 4 foot tall. it has two 8 foot long perches inside that are at different elevations. My run is 8 foot wide and 12 foot long. I have 8 hens and only one is laying so far, (green eggs). I'm hopeing the rest will start within the next month. Can't wait but, would sure like to put the crappy nest problem to an end before they do. I've only been into chickens about 2-3 months now.
Please help. Any ideas?
