Thanks for your help! I could try to block that spot, but I think she'll just move down. The run is covered with straw right now because they had pecked apart a bale I had put in there this summer.

We have 14 hens who are 21-23 weeks old now. We have 2 that have been laying for about 3 weeks now, and another started laying yesterday!! The hen that just started laying won't lay her eggs in the nest boxes. She makes a little nest in the straw in a corner of the run next to our feed...
