Hello,
so we just randomly decided in my flock of 6, lets just not use the 3 provided nesting boxes and lets literally just lay everywhere in the coop, even just right on top of the straw in the middle of the coop. I have cleaned out the nesting boxes, there wasn't poop or anything dirty. I am guessing maybe my dominate hen might be not allowing access? But then there are no eggs in the nesting boxes after she is in there.
I have noticed that my dominate girl has been seen rolling eggs out of the nesting box, but her's aren't in there either so I am just confused.
I put up a camera so I can go through and find my mover or if they are just laying outside the box. I was thinking of placing nesting boxes oppisite corners to allow for space to lay and not be nit picked.
I am not enjoying "lets find that egg".
Any suggestions would be helpful.
