Hi everyone!! My husbadn made some nesting boxes for my chickens about 3 months ago but still no usage or laying inside! They seem to only want to use them to sleep on the very top. Today we screwed the boxes to the wall so that they were not laying on the ground. When It was dark I went to check on them and of course...they were not in the nesting boxes but outside of the entire pen on top of the chicken wire. How do I get them to start laying in their nesting boxes? We have 2 acres of land and a whole lot of brush and weeds so It would be impossible to find all of the eggs if they are laying them elsewhere. I just wish they would start using the nesting boxes
