   Hey all. I have some issues with my bedding. My hens keep kicking it out. They are starting to lay and are laying on the hard wood and on the ground. Is there a way to keep the bedding in the box? I have been using straw.
   Thanks!

   If they are kicking it out, try using something else, like wood shavings.

   Do you have a 3-4" lip on the front of the nexting box? That helps a ton - keeping the bedding in, but makes it a bit more difficult when you are cleaning the next box out!
