Hello, I have 14 sex link hens, they are very large about 15 weeks old. I have 4 nest boxes and looking at these hens will they be enough? I have delaware/road island red cross and plymouth rock/road island red cross. thanks in advance
Average is 3/4 birds pert nest box. Some birds may perfer to lay in one particular box. Sometimes I get 2 or 3 birds in one nest box.
It will be fine. They all will have favorites. I had over a dozen always fighting for the same spot...
I think you'll be fine and I wouldn't be surprised if most of them still gravitate to one or two boxes....
