Chicken Chaser
Others with much greater knowledge are helping you, but I will say this, be sure to add about a 4 inch lip to the entrance of nesting boxes to make them hop over. The chickens are going to kick the bedding out and it helps keep it in the box.My plan is to build 4 nesting boxes, 12"x14", we currently have 4 Buff Orphingtons, but will add more in the spring. Must the nesting boxes be positioned higher than floor level? I had planned on the nesting boxes being at floor level, but could raise them a few inches, if necessary.
