    getting hens to lay in nesting boxes

    Mine just started laying and she lays all over the run and sometimes in the nest box. I have the fake eggs and the whole thing too. I just think she may not know yet when the egg is coming? Either way, Im just happy to have an egg!

    Quote: They get bigger over time, like a couple months. It's really gradual, so you probably won't notice it unless you keep one of the small eggs. Then after their first molt, the eggs for most hens get lots bigger. I hadn't thought my eggs got that big, then I got a new pullet laying and...

    First Egg Countdown

    This morning I decided to check the nest boxes before work, not really expecting anything. I opened the box, counted the plastic easter eggs and did a double take. There beside one of the plastic eggs was the most perfect small egg that the world has ever seen. At least my world lol! My Black...

    Has anybody else noticed a change since laying?

    My BA was never mean but also never let me near her. Now that she has started squatting, she loves for me to pet her. She has become very friendly.

    Hi Barnie, It depends on the type of chickens you have! Some don't lay in the first year. Some are more sensitive to the heat too. Look up the breed either here or on Google. Since they are 25 weeks old, start giving them layer food. Don't give them too much scraps. Also, try keeping them in a...
