We have 2 chicken tractors (3 bantam hens and a bantam rooster + 9 standard hens and a bantam rooster) and both groups of chickens have been laying in the coops but not in the boxes. I think they started this after we gave them new shavings (same brand) and took the old (3 mos ago). Also, one standard hen has been broody and taking up one box but there are 2 others. They'd rather make nests all over the place. The bantams chose one corner and I can reach those eggs. The standard eggs are hard to get to with our vicious rooster in there. How do we get the chickens to start laying their eggs in the nesting boxes again?
Thanks,
