Duncan's Poultry Nesting Boxes

[gatrapper]

Have any of y'all used Duncan's Poultry Nesting Boxes?

I am wanting a nice metal nesting box to put in our coop. This one looks pretty nice, but wanted to gather some info before I purchased one.

Haven't seen those here before.
Hope someone comes along to give you feedback.

We have the set of 4. We loved them (at first).... We kept having broken eggs in the collection boxes. We set the video camera on the boxes and it turns out several hens would stick their necks into the box and try to pull the eggs back into the nest.... then they would break. We stuffed the collection box with straw and now we just have an expensive set of nests. It was interesting watching them try to pull them back up.... not so fun to clean egg off the boxes...
