I painted their little nest house. Think they'll like it better?

We have a little coop thing that we used to put ducks or chickens in when they were ready to go outside but not ready to be with the older crowd.

I decided to turn it into their laying house instead. So far, the chickens are laying in their big coop and one of Pekins is laying in the nesting house. I thought that maybe if I painted it, the chickens would appreciate it more and do their business in there, LOL! It needs so touch ups, but it is better than the ugly plywood look it had up until today.

How should I try to coax the chickens in there?

It's a cutie! I think they'll love it. Is that a little stream behind the house? Lucky you. Lucky ducks!

Fake eggs, like golf balls, maybe?
