Here are some of my frugal nest boxes. I get them from Sam's Club or other stores that let you take boxes or cardboard. Make sure to ask at your local store to make sure it okay first. I do have several coops and permanent nest boxes that dh built for my girls but I use these in case I need extras like for the free rangers who insist on laying on the patio or under the boat etc. lol.
I also use them for my broody hutches and for mommas that are growing out chicks in the broody pens. The good thing about these frugal nest boxes is that once they are dirty, I recycle them by putting them into the compost bins or for mulch/weed barriers in the garden. The girls really seem to like them. When I first got them, all the free ranging girls would fight over them like they were a new toy lol.
