I have 5 hens and 2 cats. I have a chicken coop with one nest box and a cat duplex. Two of the hens just recently started laying while the other 3 have been laying for 9 months now.
The two new to laying have started nesting and laying in the cats' duplex. At night, they even try to roost there if I am not there to discourage it.
It is getting tiresome policing the cats' house for them. Anyone else with this problem? How can I get the cats to defend their own house without my help?
Thanks!
