    Nest boxes with curtains?

    They have unraveled it a fair amount in about 9 months time, but the sacks are so cheap I'm not concerned about the damage. I hadn't really thought about the chickens ingesting the burlap fibers. Maybe someone else can chime in as to whether eating the fibers is a concern.

    Nest boxes with curtains?

    Thats my PVC feeder, made from plans I found on this forum. I tilted it slightly off horizontal to help the food fall to the bottom. For 7 hens and 1 rooster, I only have to fill it about once a week.

    Nest boxes with curtains?

    I used a burlap sack with slits cut into it. You can't see it in this picture, but I tucked the bottom up into the top seam on 1 of the 3 nests. This provides some, but not total privacy. This seems to be the one they prefer.
