    Thanks. I will keep a close eye on it. I have 7 girls and six nesting boxes. They have a favorite. It may have been over that.

    I have a small coop with a 4’ x4’ board perch in the corner and a 2”x4” perch. They prefer the flat boar surface

    I have a small coop with a 4’x4’ flat board perch area plus a 2”x4” perch. They prefer the flat board surface as it allows them to look out of a small window. I clean it everyday. Just wondering if this is healthy for them.
