I have a flock of Columbian Plymouth rocks that are about 16-17 weeks old. They have a large run attached to a 6'x8'x8' tall coop, with nest boxes, roosting poles, etc. There are several roosting sticks out in the runs and they use those throughout the day
2 older CR girls roost on a stick out in the run every night. The rest of them just pile up in the floor at the coop door. NOBODY goes up on the roost.
If I put an older hen in with them that roosts every night, do you think she will "teach" them to roost? They just look mighty uncomfortable all piled up on the floor in this heat
Thanks
