They generally want the box as high as possible. The boxes are designed so the eggs or chicks can't fall out. There a wooden insert with a bowl shape where the hen lays her eggs directly on the wood.
I just sprouted their regular seeds. I would have one dish going always so I could feed them daily. I got all my information from some books I bought way back in the 90's.
Don’t they try to fly eventually though? I’m paranoid.
And I didn’t realize they would sprout! Awesome! May have to try that haha
