How do I 'teach' the chicken to lay in the box? Our chickens are 21 weeks old (this weekend) and one EE has been great about laying in the nesting box. We got our first brown egg from a SLW yesterday and I was there when she laid it and grabbed it off the ground immediately (looked like it was going to be pecked). I was there again today and she did the same thing... when I was there.
I tried putting a golf ball in the nesting box but all the chickens did then was peck at it.
