Aug 19, 2015 Thread starter #9 animalover14 In the Brooder 5 Years May 1, 2014 30 0 22 Iowa Ok awesome! Also where should I put the nest because I tried to put it in the corner where she laid the egg but it didn't fit. I honestly don't know how she fit back there either cause she's a big chicken and the corners not.
