Hen not going in at night

[BDutch]

There are two. They're closed for the winter because they're near roost height. They get air circulation through the eaves and the small gaps I left when constructing the nests.

I meant a real glass / perspex window , at least in winter.

Any other ideas to ease her back into sleeping in the coop at night during the upcoming weeks of cold weather are welcome as well.

Maybe something over her head?. Like a tiny tarp. To feel more safe.

Window #2 is an opening in the roosting area that I made 2 different cover/inserts for. The winter insert is clear double-wall polycarbonate as you find in many greenhouses so there's still light getting in. The spring-summer-fall insert is hardware cloth over a steel grid much like the one in the picture of window #1.

We'll see. . . . But I'm definitely drawing a line at pyjamas and lullabies.
