I've got four, 28 week old chickens. Two of them have started laying and for the most part, they lay in the nesting box. Occasionally I'll come out in the morning to find that one of them has laid an egg while roosting and that it has broken after landing on the bottom of the coop. I realize this is not abnormal, but am wondering if this is due more to "new egg layer" behavior, or if I need another nesting box. (I've got one roomy box for the 4 girls, two of which are not yet laying).
