    What do you put in your nest box?

    Hi! Yup, still here! The Sweet PDZ is a granulated horse stall freshener. I use it on my poop boards. Scoops clean like cat litter, keeps the ammonia and moisture low. I get it at Tractor Supply. I also sprinkle a little on the floor of the coop. I did eventually decide to put a bit in the...

    What do you put in your nest box?

    Hi! We have had chickens for several years and have tried lots of things in the nest boxes. We started out with wood chips, then tried the plastic "grass" liners for roll-out nest boxes. Currently I am using straw/hay. My issue is that sometimes an egg will get stepped on or a broody hen...
