Girls haven’t been in Nest Boxes

Hey everyone, thanks for your responses. I'm not too worried about them sleeping in the boxes at this. point as they seem pretty comfortable up on the roost. I did give the coop a good clean and made some minor improvements and I'm a lot happier with what I have now. I made some changes to the boxes. These changes included adding a better lip and a perch in front of it and also making it a little more open at the top of the front so they are easier to access. I also put a new roost bar in. I feel like I really made some nice changes in a few short hours and everyones comments were helpful. I'll try to take a picture when I get home tonight. They are 18 weeks this Friday and their combs and wattles are starting to get a lot more bright red so I am hoping I am not too far off. Next couple of weeks maybe.
thanks
 
Here are the improvements. And a picture of the girls.
