My chickens don't like to dust bathe in a tub

[LazytownChick]

What type of tub are you using? I had tried different "tubs" before and the chickens wouldn't use them because they were simply too small or too hard for them to climb into. Now I use a kid's sandbox so it's a lot roomier and keeps the contents fully covered and protected from rain and snow.

I'm using a plastic rectangular tub. I've also tried using a circular black tub but they still didn't seem interested. I'll try the peat moss this weekend. Thank you all!

I also use peat moss but I'd suggest trying to find a product that's just peat moss, such as this: https://www.homedepot.com/p/3-cu-ft-Peat-Moss-3001-CFC003P/205883917 The miracle gro one says it has fertilizers added.
