    Has anyone ever done this?

    That’s a good idea! I never thought about tilting it back, just forwards

    Has anyone ever done this?

    Maybe I should take a look. Since I just got this once it would just be really nice to convert it. Might be a good idea.

    Has anyone ever done this?

    No one wants her and I feel bad just culling. The problem is, I’m at work so I grab any eggs that they’ve laid before I go but the rest sit till I get home after 6. Once I got this new nesting box, they have just been laying in there, not making nests on the ground anymore. Yes, I have thought...

    Has anyone ever done this?

    It’s mostly for egg cleanliness and yes I do have an egg eater. She only eats the eggs when she is laying, which she isn’t at the moment, but I would prefer to have a roll away one for when she starts. At the moment, I have gray rubber pads in each box and I put straw in them as well, they kick...

    Has anyone ever done this?

    So I got this nesting box secondhand and I’m curious if anyone has ever converted a nesting box like this into a roll away box.

    Hey I just wanted to add an update ! Sorry it’s so long after. I switched her feed and gave her that b complex vitamin and after roughly a week we are back to normal!

    Lay mash isn’t new to her, just new as of the last few months. I feel so bad! I thought with the vitamin in their water , and the free ranging, kitchen scraps and the barley/molasses/corn was enough for them. I can try mixing lay mash with some of her favorite foods. She doesn’t want any weight...

    Also, would it be beneficial to separate her from the rest of the flock?
