external nest boxes

[winstonsgrrrl]

Can you buy nest boxes to attach to the outside of a coop? I've got a dog house that has been converted into a coop, but I would like to put a nest box on the outside to make retrieving eggs easier and free up more floor space inside the coop.

I don't see any on that site that are made to attch to the outside of the coop. Am I missing something?

We built them on the outside of our coop - it's nothing fancy, but they work great:

What would be the difference wall hanging nest made to go inside an a wall hanging nest made to go outside? They all have tops an the metal ones are galvanized. The wooden ones can be painted.
