Best Nest Box? Opinions?

[sniper338]

Im looking at getting galvanized nest boxs. AND, had issues in the past with egg eating, cracking, dirty etc... so Im thinking a roll away nest.

Looking at the Best Nest Box... I have one older hen Ill have to train to it, the rest are up and coming pullets that wont know any difference. Ill tape upen the flaps for a week or so to train the hen to it.

What are yalls reviews? Ive always thought lots of nest boxs, dividers,... never thought of a community nest box.

Opinions please...

I'm building roll away boxes after evaluating everything I could find, so no help here.

Am surprised no one has posted regarding community boxes, surely someone uses it!

I think most people go with boxes, dividers, etc. because some chickens tend to like the coziness. However, we all know and have seen pics of 3 or more chickens in a single box, so clearly some would be happy in a community box.

I think Ill just try it. If it works it will be the best all around wsy of doing it. Just gotta train em to the box... which isnt hard to do... i was just hoping for some success stories.

I dont have roosters, so no need for a broody hen...
