Any suggestions for helping my Silkie be able to roost?

Not sure if she wants to, though she does get up on the roost at night with a series of ladders. This run roost (in pic) however, she can’t get on despite a couple of ladder variations. 11 weeks so maybe she’ll get up with age, but any suggestions on Silkie friendly steps?

Steps closer together might help her, but then there is always the possibility of injury when she jumps down.

Hey, I’m just checking in to see if/how you resolved the ladder issue for your silkie? I’ve got the same problem with mine and I worry she’s lonely at night while her pals are roosting. Thank you!

Hi! Yes actually, she’s been able to get up easily now that she’s older, but the preferred ladder she uses is a flat ramp with notches on it.
