I did have trouble getting my pullets to lay in the rollaway as WingItRanch said and I pretty much told the whole story in that post. Since then though, my new layers have mostly taken to the box but I have had a few that were chased out by my established layers and some broodies. The Hen Gear box is “community” style and doesn’t have individual boxes. Until my newest layers started visiting the box, this wasn’t a problem. But my established layers didn’t like sharing so this took some intervention. For example, I was home a few days and when I would see a new layer nesting on the floor, I would gently lift her into the box and close the roost bar so she stayed in until she laid or until she seemed stressed. I sometimes had to move established layers out of the box to do this, depending on how they reacted when I put the new layer in. If I found an egg on the floor and could identify who laid it, I put the egg and the pullet in the box together. It took some vigilance but they caught on within a few days, once I started intervening. I will still occasionally find an egg on the floor but not daily and it doesn’t seem to be routine. I have wondered if they get tired of waiting for a spot and just decide to drop the egg where they are! Also, they are new layers so might not even know it is happening. Anyway, hope this helps! Good luck!
