--Chickens miss their old coop-- (((PICS ADDED)))

[PartyOnARoost]

Okay so I just add a new coop that I finished today, it is nightime and the chickens are freaking out because they miss their old nesting box where they sleep in... they are crying for it a lot, and i have a roost in their shelter area where they should sleep, but instead their sleeping in their run where the door to get outside is... I can tell they really want to escape from their coop, and I am really feeling sorry for them... Here are where their sleeping right now, the last pic is their roost where they should sleep:







I KNOW that with a litle BYC help I will be very happy by the outcome of your guys answers

They'll get used to their new digs in time. It took mine about a week of trying their hardest to get back in their old run where their old coop is. They finally gave up and accepted their new place. I now use their old coop as an infirmary.

They will get used to it. There is no need to worry. Chickens are not going to "Poof, dead!" at the slightest bit of distress.

Thank you so much gave me a lot of relief!!!
So I will keep them in their coop and I won't have to worry about them, plus the coop is big enough and safe enough, so I will enjoy the rest 7 days...
