New to this forum, love reading all the info.
I have a question as I am new to chickens and egglayers.
I have 26 pullets that are 16 weeks and 13 pullets that are 13 weeks.
My question is about the nesting boxes.
I have a two row nesting box with 5 boxes across.
the bottom row is 19" off the floor and the top row is 31 ".
My roosts are 36" off the floor.
Are the nesting boxes too high or are they ok?
thanks
I'm not sure if you are talking about the bottom of each row, the top or each row, or the bottom of the opening? But that really doesn't matter. Let your chickens tell you. Are they sleeping on the roosts or in the nest boxes? If they are sleeping on the roosts, your nest box height is perfect.
