HI everyone. I have an 8 week old white silkie pullet that doesnt go into the coop at night. The coop is elevated 20 inches off the ground. There is no ramp ( i feel like not having a ramp eliminates an entranceway for vermin) The other three chickens ( 1 other silkie 1 millie fleur 1 cochin ) are the same age and all go into the coop at night with with no issue. It is just the one white silkie that doesnt go in the coop at night. She ambulates normally and doesnt seem to have any other issues. Every night I put her into the coop to help her get the idea but it has been 3 weeks and she has yet to actually put HERSELF in it. Any thoughts?
