I have two hens that, no matter what I do, they will not lay in the nesting boxes. We have 11 layers total, and all the others have no problems. We have six boxes for them to lay. We cleaned the boxes, put curtains in them, tried herbs, both fresh and dried to see if it made a difference, we've tried dummy eggs... they are both golden comets. We just accepted that they would not lay and moved on. However, now in the last two days at least one of their eggs have been eaten. This is now a problem, I'm worried that now the coop has gotten a taste they will start in on the eggs in the boxes.
I collect as soon as I let them out and again in the afternoon, so I'm hoping I can at least get those in time. But I'm looking for some relevant advice to my situation and I cant seem to find any. Please help.
