I would invest in an automatic chicken door. You should have enough time to fine tune it to open and close when it should and it would keep your chicken safe from predators at night.
I have a dilemma! I want to put the fake eggs back into the nest boxes as our BO are getting close to laying. The issue is my two BF keep trying to go broody and it really helped when I took the fake eggs out. What should I do? I don't want broody hens. I think 23 chicken is enough in our 50x150...
